Cochise County Citizens Support Sheriff Dever

image
Benson
What an experience to know and support our Sheriff. Not just while he has been Sheriff but the many years before. I moved to the Benson area in 1978 and renewed our friendship then.

Why I am supporting Larry for sheriff goes back to those days. I have seen him grow through the Sheriff's Office from Miracle Valley and know he is the best man for this job today. With the border problems going on all around us, regardless of what our PAST Governor states, we are in the middle of a growing mess and I know Larry is the best man to protect my Family.

I have lived in Cochise County for 14 years and have seen Larry Dever in several difficult situations, both in meetings and in the field working, and have come to respect him immensely. When challenged with unreasonable dialogue and actions he conducts himself not only with courage but with grace and humility. He has proven to me to possess unquestionable integrity, and he has my full support. - Ed Ashurst - Rancher Apache, AZ


Sheriff Larry Dever is an empowered individual who demonstrates leadership in everything he does while effectively exporting this quality to his law enforcement team . He takes a personal interest in knowledgeably fighting for the safety of his county’s citizens whether at the local, state or federal level. We have personally witnessed his confident, experienced and level headed approach in solving complex community and national security matters. He has defended us from the State Capitol all the way to Washington D.C. applying his familiar fair minded and straight talking manner. During the Horseshoe 2 fire Sheriff Dever took special care to aid us and other area ranchers and residents. His handling of a crime incident in which we were victims also demonstrated his personal and meticulous consideration. He has earned our respect, gratitude and friendship. - Scott and Toni Arena - Rancher

I support and stand with Sheriff Larry Dever because; “It is not enough that we do our best; sometimes we must do what is required.”

Sheriff Larry Dever’s 36 years in law enforcement, with the most recent 16 years as Cochise County sheriff epitomize that philosophy. Larry Dever continues his efforts to provide a safe environment for all Cochise County residents. Only his re-election will ensure that nefarious outside influences will not determine the future of Cochise County.

The office of Sheriff is not only an imposing position of leadership, but one where there must be a balance of what is within and what is outside the law. It is the Sheriff who must analyze, interpret the issues at hand and balance what is in consonance with the law and just to all parties. Larry Dever is one who has captured the essentials of sound leadership and applies them in the conduct of the office of Sheriff. His team of deputies reflect his commitment to be a strong steady hand in the administration of law enforcement within the county. His soft spoken candor in pursuit of justice and fairness are paramount to his success as Sheriff of Cochise County.

I met Larry in 1984 while attending a Boy Scout meeting in Sierra Vista. He was and still is a supporter of the scouting program. As the years progressed I got to know Larry and found him to be a family man, an honest person and caring individual. He always listened when you spoke to him and was fair in his treatment to all. I never saw him talk down to anyone.

I have worked with him for 28 years in the Search and Rescue program. He is a strong supporter of Search and Rescue and has always tried to provide the team with equipment and vehicles so we can do our mission.

I whole heartedly support him in his bid for re-election as Sheriff of Cochise County.

- Raul Limon - Sierra Vista


As a Veteran, concerned with National Security threats abroad and domestically, I appreciate that Sheriff Larry Dever shares my concerns. He is a recognized authority on what needs to be done to secure the border on the home front, and is adamant in professionally and openly expressing his concerns, views, and recommendations at all levels of Government. And, he does so in a non-political manner. I am impressed with the way in which he has professionally managed the Sheriff’s Office and his election campaigns over the years and especially how he manages the Sheriff’s Office and facilities under current severe funding constraints.

It is my great pleasure to endorse Sheriff Larry A. Dever in his pursuit of another term as Sheriff of Cochise County - Vote Dever in 2012.

About Sheriff Dever

I worked with and for Sheriff Larry Dever from 1989 to 2001. Larry is a compassionate, caring and honest person and great to work for. He cares about his Officer’s and the citizens of this County more than anybody I know. Sheriff Dever is a moral and just person to have as a Sheriff. His Integrity is unblemished. Larry is most knowledgeable and willing to use that knowledge in protecting the people of this County. He has done more for the people of this County than most Sheriffs are willing to do in a lifetime, including Testifying to the US Congress. He is a real asset to us and we should keep him as Sheriff of Cochise County as long as possible. Please re-elect Larry Dever for Sheriff of Cochise County.

- (Ret.) Deputy Sheriff J. D. Clark

Having known Larry Dever for more than 35 years, working directly with him in the Sheriff’s Department for 14 years, I can state unequivocally that Larry has dedicated his entire life to the welfare and safety of Cochise County and it’s residents. His work on the Mexican Border has been and is a service to our entire Nation. Larry has become an expert in law enforcement working his way up through the ranks in the County Sheriff’s Department and earning the trust and votes of citizens to serve (4) terms as Sheriff. Larry and his wife Nancy, have raised their family in St. David, serving as the model of family values that is so needed in our country today. I am proud to support Larry in his bid for re‐election as Cochise County Sheriff. - (RET) DETECTIVE COCHISE COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT Mary Ella Cowan

My wife and I support Larry A Dever for Sheriff of Cochise County. He is intelligent, hard working, and truly cares about the citizens of Cochise County. I worked for two of the top Sheriffs of Cochise County, Jim Wilson and Jim Judd, and I worked with Larry for several years. He was an asset to the department. With his dedication to the job, and the citizens of Cochise County, he is a great Sheriff. We believe he deserves the support of the voters to continue doing an outstanding job of protecting Cochise County as Sheriff.

The reasons that my family supports Sheriff Dever are important to us and should be for all who are in need of good law enforcement. Sheriff Dever spoke to our group in October and November, small groups to be sure, but he took the time and effort to support the people who support him. His attitude was not only professional in his presentation(s), but genuine in his care and concern for the people he humbly serves. We are very supportive of Sheriff Dever and his staff. Law enforcement in Cochise County is kept to a professional manner with the people as the main concern. Sheriff Dever is working very hard to keep our border safe without the assistance from the federal government needed. Every concerned citizen should be looking for the most qualified candidate for the position of Sheriff. That would be, in our opinion, after looking at the alternatives, Sheriff Larry Dever. Respectfully submitted,
