L. Shane Nelson was sworn

the oath of office from Judge
Michael Sullivan. Sheriff Nel-

Larry Blanton who served as

recently, he served as the
Corrections Division Com-
mander. He was born and
raised in Bend and graduated
from Mountain View High
School in 1988. After graduat-
ing from Oregon State Univer-
sity in 1993 he moved back to
Bend.
“I am proud to serve
the citizens of our great
county alongside the admi-
rable women and men of the
Deschutes County Sheriff’s
Office. Your sheriff’s office
has proudly served our com-
munity for nearly 100 years.

deserve,” said Sheriff Nelson.
Fire district honors Tom Barrier
The Cloverdale Rural Fire
Protection District Board of
Directors held a special meet-
ing on June 30 — the last
official meeting with Director
Tom Barrier serving the dis-
trict. Barrier lost his bid for
re-election in May, bringing
to an end 20 years of service
to the district.
Barrier contacted then-
Chief Charles Cable in early
1995 and began volunteer-
ing as a member of the sup-
port services unit. Tom was
very active in the Cloverdale
Volunteer Fire Fighters
Association as a support ser-
vices volunteer. He helped
turn two military surplus
trucks into fire trucks and
volunteered his expertise
as a painter in painting both
rigs and various other appa-
ratus. Until 2001 Tom was
involved in all aspects of the
association, from serving as
an officer to planning social
functions to attending train-
ing drills. Tom’s participation
was instrumental in moving
the department forward in the
late ’90s.
In 2001, Barrier became
a board member. Tom has

always participated actively
on board matters utilizing
his military background as
an army officer to formulate
his decisions. Those deci-
sions were never influenced
by pressure from others, even
if he was outvoted, his coll-
leagues recalled.
Always one to speak his
mind, his opinions allowed
the board to see situations
from another perspective.
During his time of service
to the district, Barrier has
also served the veterans of
the Sisters community. Tom
is an active member of the
Sisters Band of Brothers and
can often be seen in the com-
munity working to help our
military veterans.
The directors and mem-
bers of the Cloverdale Fire
District thanked Tom Barrier
for his many years of service
to the organization and the
community.
