Deputy Clint Holmes Receives ‘Service Over Self’ Award From Cantonment Rotary

August 11, 2023

The Cantonment Rotary Club honored Escambia County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Clint Holmes with the “Service Over Self” award.

Holmes works from the Cantonment/Molino Precinct 5 and was nominated by Lt. Bobby Nelson for his dedication to the community and the department.

Holmes joined the ECSO about four years ago after retiring from his own automotive business.

“Clint shows his dedication by always stepping up and working for others that need off so they can be off and not told no due to shortages,” the Rotary Club presentation stated. “Clint on his days off will come in when other shifts are short without benefiting from overtime pay, or just to help out when really busy on short notice. Clint has been very reliable and is prior life experience has helped him serve the public putting service before self every time.”

    This man has been involved in a matter that has put me out in motor ways than I can say. He has been to my house on calls and has been involved in my family issues since the get go and has been nothing but stellar respectful polite every time. He is very deserving of this and of other awards for his work if there were more officers that done their jobs as he does would be easier to talk to those with a badge.

    That’s awesome, Clint is a good person and very helpful, my dad had Alzheimer’s and wondered off and ended up at the sub station and Clint went out of his way to help get pops back home.
