In my role as Police Chief, I have had the privilege to work with Terry for the past 4 years. Terry is an experienced law enforcement officer and the right person to serve as our next Columbia County Sheriff.

“Greetings fellow Columbia County residents,
I am personally writing to you as a citizen of Columbia County and as a resident of Rainer since 1991. When I heard that Terry Massey was running for Sheriff, I did not hesitate to write this endorsement letter. I think the highest level of enforcement a Sheriff should represent is selflessness, compassion, tenacity for business, accountability, and the methodology to leave something better than they found it.
That person is, without a doubt, Terry Massey. I have had the privilege to know Terry and his family for approximately 15 years. In my opinion, Terry is an asset to law enforcement. He is very intuitive, analytical, resourceful, benevolent, sympathetic, and can hold himself and others accountable. He is also very proud to be from Columbia County he has lived here most of his life, raised his family here, and someday, maybe his grandchildren. Hes invested in this County. My impression of Terry is that he is not one to sit back and talk about things he dislikes or the things he would like to see changed he does what he can to try to make conditions better for everyone, not just himself. He has pledged to do that for Columbia County. For us!
Our communities are growing. With that growth crime is increasing and drugs are more prevalent, something must change. Terry Massey is a true leader willing to step up to mitigate these issues. He will value and hear the voices brave enough to be heard. I am confident he will do everything within his power to ensure that our communities continue to thrive, ensure our citizens’ safety, and work diligently to try to ensure our families can have 24-hour policing.
In my 31 years in Columbia County, I have served on many Boards with the City of Rainier, the Rainier School District and countless Youth organizations. I have been coaching sports teams every year I've lived here. Through coaching I have been exposed to thousands of parents. Terry, and his wife Jen, are at the top of my list for exceptional and high-quality people. I am very honored to be able to call them my friends.
Terry is someone who wants to be part of the solution. In my experience with Terry, he is someone who will be the first to volunteer to help. I know this because I have asked for his help MANY times. Terry Massy has my vote. Take the time to get to know him, I think you will agree, you should vote for him too!
Thank you for your time,
Tina Edwards”
