The
Sheriff's Office would like to thank Jack Quinn and the folks at Jamar
Memorials and Larry Price and his staff at Price Construction for helping to
move the memorial monument to Deputy Kevin Carper. The monument had originally
stood alongside of I-85 at the Highway 129 overpass. However, the ground
underneath the monument was starting to erode and it became necessary to move
it before it fell over. Sheriff Wright and those involved in the creation of
the monument felt the best place for it was here at the Sheriff's Office on
Howard Street. In it's new home more people can view the monument and remember
the ultimate sacrifice Deputy Carper made the evening of February 27, 2007
while protecting and serving the citizens of Spartanburg County.
