heriff Richardson and deputies would like to send a warm congratulations to Chief Bobby Hayes on his retirement from Fire District #9 in Frierson. Chief Hayes has served the citizens of DeSoto Parish for 21 years upon his retirement, having also retired from Shreveport Police Department, and worked many years in home appraisal. He has served on both the EMS Board and Crimestoppers Board in DeSoto as well. Chief Hayes has spent his life in public service, caring for the safety of citizens, and instilling wisdom into his co-workers and friends. Tomorrow, Bobby says if anyone needs him he will likely be located in his recliner, probably watching a movie. We are grateful for the years of service Chief Hayes has dedicated to our parish and abroad. Thank you for all you have done, and we wish you long and relaxing retirement!
