On behalf of the Sheriffs’ Association of Texas, Sheriff Tim Ingram presented the Inv. John E. Hunt – Texas Peacemaker Scholarship for the Fall 2019 Semester in the amount of $500 to Jacob Isbell, son of Mount Pleasant Police Department Chief Wayne Isbell.
Jacob is a student at Northeast Texas Community College, majoring in Engineering. Sheriff Ingram congratulated Jacob and wishes him the best in all of his future endeavors.
The Texas Peacemaker Scholarship was established to honor a law enforcement professional who has exemplified an extraordinary devotion to the public good and the community, and whose approach to law enforcement maintains order and justice.
The Scholarship was established by the Dippel family to honor the late Tieman H. Dippel, who served as Sheriff of Washington County from November 5, 1940 to January 1, 1961.
Congratulations, Jacob! I know that Mr. Hunt was disappointed in not being present when you received the award; I hope that your paths cross at some point. Wishing you continued success in your academic pursuits!
