When it was time for Officer 502 Gary Roy to say his thank you's at his retirement dinner August 27, 2019, he looked first into his wife Lee Ann's eyes and spoke directly to her and their three children, Katie, Austin and Eli. He said he looked forward to being able to be home for birthdays and Christmas now, and he thanked them for allowing him to be who he is and for standing with him through his years in law enforcement. To be the one who is known to always keep everyone laughing, he took his first moments to share his deep gratitude for having met his life goals. He offered advice to young officers, thanked his fellow officers and city staff. And he thanked God for watching over him through his years of service to the Columbia City Police Department.
