CONGRATULATIONS OFFICER BRIAN BEAVERS

Officer Brian Beavers has been with the Salisbury Police Department for 21 years. Right now at this exact moment, 8:00 AM, Brian officially retires from the SPD and has served this community better than most will ever know. I consider Brian a true friend, an honorable man, a great Father and an unbelievable Husband.

Brian, thank you for all you have given. God Speed my Friend and may you enjoy your retirement and future in good health. Between his service with the SPD, including sick leave and his time in the military Brian will have served 29 total years serving Salisbury and America.

It's 8:00 AM Brother, tell the Chiefy he's #1! Now let's go make some chicken wings!

Congrats Mr. Beavers!


Webster is probably thinking..."this is great! One less officer on the payroll means that I can buy another car!

One of the few left who would hold the administration to task and speak out for what is right. Sad to see you go.

trust me Mr. anon 10:20 this man has laid his life on the line, including taking a bullet over his years of service. If anyone deserves a cup of coffee, its this man. I'd gladly buy him a cup and a donut..

Sgt. Beaver,

Good luck with everything. I wish you all the best. Although I never worked directly for you, it was a pleasure to work with you at SPD. You always had a good reputation as a great supervisor to work for and earned the respect of your personnel. Again, good luck and be safe.

Congratulations Brian. I haven't seen you in years but the times we did work together it was a privilege.

Beaver, You are a true asset to law enforcement, and one of the last of the true breed of brotherhood that only gets talked about sparingly. Sorry to see you go, and thanks for always having my back brother.

Brian,

Thank you for being a true leader in in the department. You understood the word proactive where your chief thinks it's a coffee flavor at WaWa. Thank you for taking pride in your work.

Your a true crime fighter...God speed...good luck you will always and forever be the only 149

Beav,
Congratulations and good luck! Thank you for everything you did for SPD. I don't know what we'll do without you!
10:20AM...Go get a clue. You are obviously a stereotyping dipsh!t. I don't see a donut do you? This man deserves a cup of coffee after all these years of his hard work and dedication to the citizens of Salisbury. You could not have asked for a better supervisor, friend, or employee.

Congrats, Uncle Brian. I hope I can say that to you in person soon. We can sit out around the firepit and talk about how it was when you were on duty. I'm proud to call you my uncle and one of my role models. See you soon.

Sgt Beaver is a good dude i wrote him a ticket in my first year on the job for not wearing his seatbelt while he was off duty. he did not flash his badge at me and after i found out he was a cop i was upset but he told me not tgo worry because he was at fault. that impressed me. he is a classy guy.
