Pulaski County honors Lehi Ledbetter for 43 years of dedicated public service

During a recent Pulaski County Quorum Court meeting, the county honored Lehi Ledbetter for her remarkable 43 years of dedicated service to local government. Ledbetter, who began her career in October 1982, has held various roles, including deputy clerk and supervisor in the county clerk's office, as well as an intake officer for the circuit court's mental health division.

The recognition highlighted Ledbetter's extensive contributions, particularly her collaboration with judges, attorneys, and healthcare professionals in the mental health court. Her career journey has included registering voters, issuing marriage licenses, and assisting individuals with mental health and substance abuse issues.

In addition to her professional achievements, Ledbetter is a devoted member of Pilgrim Rest Missionary Baptist Church and a proud mother and grandmother. As she prepares for retirement, she plans to travel, starting with a cruise through Europe, proudly wearing her Pulaski County apparel.

This tribute not only celebrates Ledbetter's individual contributions but also reflects the county's commitment to recognizing long-serving public servants who have positively impacted the community.
