HONORING J.R. ROWELL
______
HON. DAN BISHOP
of north carolina
in the house of representatives
Friday, October 14, 2022
Mr. BISHOP of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to honor J.R. Rowell, an exemplary public servant in North Carolina. J.R. is retiring after 36 years of dedicated service to his community as a state trooper and the Union County Superior Court Clerk. J.R. began his career as a state trooper in the N.C. State Highway Patrol. He then continued to bravely serve North Carolinians as a 1st Sergeant for 20 years. Following his law enforcement career, J.R. was elected to serve as the Union County Superior Court Clerk in 2006. Since assuming this position, he's sworn in nearly every elected official and judge in Union County over the past 16 years.
J.R. is a Union County native and Parkwood High School alumnus. He studied social science and criminal justice at Gardner-Webb University before completing a master's degree in organizational management at Pfeiffer University. He's used these skills to help make Union County a truly great place to live and work.
I thank J.R. for his many years of selfless service to Union County and the state of North Carolina. I wish him a long and happy retirement spent with his two children, Kane and Melody, and three grandchildren. Once again, congratulations to him on his successful career.
