                    A TRIBUTE TO SHERIFF SID CAUSEY

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. MIKE McINTYRE

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 4, 2009

  Mr. McINTYRE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to New 
Hanover County Sheriff Sid Causey. As Sheriff Causey prepares to retire 
on July 1, 2009, I ask that you join me in recognizing his long and 
honorable career of service.
  Sheriff Causey began his career in 1970 with the Carolina Beach 
Police Department, and then moved to the sheriff's office in 1973. In 
1978, he moved to the county Alcoholic Beverage Control board, then 
returned to the sheriff's office in 1986. For seventeen years, he 
effectively commanded the office's vice narcotics unit and since being 
elected as the New Hanover County Sheriff in 2002, drug control has 
been his priority, and he has made major strides in reducing this 
underlying cause of crime within the community. I am inspired by his 
courage in the fight against drugs, and I salute him for his many 
contributions and sacrifices.
  Madam Speaker, Sheriff Sid Causey has served in New Hanover County 
law enforcement for over 39 years and done so with distinction. As he 
prepares to close the final chapter of his career, I wish Sheriff 
Causey

and his family God's richest blessings. I ask that you join me today in 
recognition of his impressive career of enduring public service.
