Mr. HUDSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Deputy Chief Jimmy Hughes on receiving the 2020 Robert Jackson Eury Memorial Award.
Deputy Chief Hughes started his career with the Concord Police Department in 1998 as a patrol officer. He rose through the ranks before being promoted to Deputy Chief in 2019 by CPD Chief Gary Gacek, and previously served with CPD in the Special Investigations Unit, Criminal Investigations, and the Office of Management & Planning. He was an original member of the SWAT team, where he also served as SWAT commander. Jimmy is a graduate of the Police Executive Research Forum--
Senior Management Institute for Police--Session 67 and a 1998 graduate of Pfeiffer University with a BS in Business Management/Finance.
Throughout his career, Deputy Chief Hughes has worked to establish relationships and partnerships with the community, fellow law enforcement officers, and criminal justice professionals. Jimmy is hard working, driven, and has said that he attributes his success and longevity to the Golden Rule, treating people the way he wants to be treated. Deputy Chief Hughes is married and has five children. In his spare time, Jimmy enjoys restoring classic vehicles.
The Robert Jackson Eury Memorial Award is presented in memory of Robert Jackson Eury, a man who lost his life in the line of duty while serving as a Cabarrus County law enforcement officer. This award keeps Mr. Eury's legacy alive through officers who share his same admirable and commendable spirit in Cabarrus County. Deputy Chief Jimmy Hughes fits the mold of esteemed law enforcement officers in our community set by Robert Eury.
Madam Speaker, please join me today in congratulating Deputy Chief Jimmy Hughes for receiving the 2020 Robert Jackson Eury Memorial Award. We all wish him well as he continues to make a positive impact in our community.
