Bladen County recognizes multiple employees for service and retirement
Summary
The Board of Commissioners recognized several county employees for years of service and retirement, including long-serving staff in social services, WIC, library branches and detention; the meeting included thank-you remarks but no policy actions tied to the recognitions.
The Bladen County Board of Commissioners used part of its meeting to recognize a number of county employees for years of service and to mark at least one retirement.
Officials honored Lisa Allison on her retirement from Bladen County Department of Social Services and praised her years of work in child protective services and later child support. The board also recognized Sheila (last name not specified in the record) for 10 years of service in child protective services and Mary McVicker (recorded as McKeever in one exchange) for more than 20 years with county services and foster-care transportation. Other employees recognized included Ashley Norris in finance (five years), Crystal Storms (five years in the WIC — Women, Infants and Children — program), Greta Jackson (10 years at the Bladen County Public Library Clarkton branch) and Donna Parnell (a sergeant at the detention center) for her service.
Speakers at the meeting described colleagues’ specific duties — transporting children, working in child protective services and supporting library programs — and urged attendees to thank the employees. The recognitions were ceremonial; no board policy actions or funding decisions were tied to the presentations.
The board invited attendees to join refreshments after the presentations.
