BROWNSVILLE, Tenn. — Thursday, Brownsville Police Chief Barry Diebold was celebrated for retiring with 32 years of service.
The event was hosted at East Side Elementary, where Diebold worked as an school resources officer for 30 years.
During the retirement ceremony, Diebold’s wife was given flowers from the Brownsville Police Department. The team thanked her for her support as the wife of the chief.
