CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (KCRG) - On Friday, the Linn County Sheriff’s Office hosted a retirement reception for Captain Randy Roland for his last day of employment.
He was hired in 1980 as a deputy working in the jail. He’s also worked in the patrol division and finished his career as a civil division captain. Officials say it’s unusual for an officer to serve with only one agency for that long.
Rowland says he’s ready to start a different chapter in his life and that he’ll use the extra time for some of his hobbies - which including creating stain glass art.
