Mark Crider: True born leader

 


Dear Editor,

From the time I was a young girl, I can remember my parents expressing the importance of having strong morals and values. I knew in my teenage years that I wanted to become a police officer. It was from that moment on that everything I did mattered.

I am a woman of integrity, honor, dignity, pride, respect, compassion and so much more. When I became a police officer, I took an oath to be held to a higher standard – to embody these morals each and everyday. Two years ago, I was promoted to a leadership position. I quickly learned how important it was to be a good leader.

Being a leader means being willing to do everything you ask your deputies to do. It means showing up each and every day with a positive attitude. It means constantly doing the right thing, even when no one is watching. Being a leader means leading from the front and setting the example.

The Sheriff’s Office has the opportunity to have an excellent leader as Sheriff in Mark Crider. From his countless certifications, to his wealth of knowledge; Mark is without a doubt the most qualified candidate. Mark is willing to learn from others and listen. He is professional, and his integrity is unmatched.

Mark has always done the right thing, even in the face of adversity. He is willing to stand up for what he believes is right. He is the kind of man every department would be lucky to have and sad to lose. He is the true definition of a leader.

Mark’s service to his country is extremely honorable and his 22 years dedication to the FBI is very respectable. Mark has the experience and skillset to make critical decisions that will affect the community.

Mark values his employees and will serve the County of Walla Walla with pride, and will safeguard the lives and safety of our citizens and deputies. He sees the need to address the concerning drug problem in the county and has the ability to work with other agencies due to his background to help combat it.

Not everyone is meant to be a leader. Leadership is not a position or a title, it is action and example. Mark Crider is that example, wholeheartedly.

Please join me in voting Mark Crider for Sheriff!

Kristen Daschofsky

Detective, WWSO
