Davis said she joined the police department to help people.
“When I joined 33 years ago, I never thought I would stay as long as I have,” she said. “It’s a very rewarding career.”
Police Chief Tom Manger mentioned Davis’ pending retirement during the annual Fallen Heroes Memorial Service on May 3rd.
“Betsy, your dedication to this police department is exceeded only by the care, the love, the compassion that you have for the families gathered here,” Manger said. “You have been a leader in caring for our family, and keeping that promise that we will never forget, and I want to thank you for that…Betsy, you are one of a kind.”
