Your later involvement with the USS Bennington Society, Veterans of Foreign Wars, and as an avid supporter of First Responders and our Armed Forces are indicative of your love and respect for your fellow man. You and your contemporaries are what make the United States the greatest country in the world. Therefore, as Sheriff of Escambia County, it is my honor to present you with an honorary appointment as a member of the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office. Please know that this is but a small token of my respect and admiration for you.” Carroll was also a member of Pensacola Country Club where he enjoyed dining and the great Seafood Gumbo.
