Join us in congratulating Sgt. Michael Lawrence on his retirement after 25 years of dedicated service to our community.

Throughout his career—most notably in our Patrol Division—Sgt. Lawrence has worked tirelessly to protect our city and its citizens. Today, we had the honor of celebrating him with a surprise retirement gathering, where colleagues shared heartfelt tributes.

“Sgt. Lawrence was all about proactive policing. The department will go on, but he truly can’t be replaced,” said Lt. Fred Hoose.

We couldn’t agree more.

Thank you, Sgt. Lawrence, for your commitment, leadership, and lasting impact. Wishing you all the best in this next chapter—you’ve certainly earned it!
