FAREWELL To CHIEF CHARLES KIMBLE - KILLEEN WILL MISS YOU!

Chief Kimble started this career in public service over 30 years ago. He always had a passion for not only serving people, but helping the citizens of this country.

Chief Kimble says, "The law enforcement community is a tight-knit group and I know I’ll always be a part of that family". I remember when Chief Charles Kimble joined the Killeen Police Department in September and they had announced he had just completed working in the state of North Carolina.

CHIEF CHARLES KIMBLE WILL ALWAYS HAVE A FAMILY HERE IN KILLEEN, TEXAS

We never held it against him being a Green Bay Packers fan in a Dallas cowboy city because he was always very fair and good to us.

Since his arrival, there's been a decrease in the crime rate in the city of Killeen, and Chief Campbell also started a homeless outreach program which was very much needed.

I think I speak for all of the city when I say we hate to see chief Charles Kimble go, but we definitely appreciate all the effort and time you put into making sure this city is not only safe for me and my family but for all of the community. Thank you for your services and congratulations on your retirement.
