"With 20 years of experience, nine of them being with our Highway Department, Kerry Cagle is the right choice." These are the words of Joyce Holt who retired from the commission just three months ago. She and several others showed up to the County Commission meeting held March 20th to speak in support of Mr. Cagle's Highway Commissioner nomination.

Some complimented his attention to detail, others his experience, and others spoke on his ability to maintain a positive work environment.

Mr. Cagle had this to say regarding his appointment. "The crew we have now, I've been with most for four years, and some of them, I went to school with. We work well together, respect each other, and can depend on each other. I'm proud to be part of such a team, and I'm honored to utilize my experience and resources toward continued success as your new Lewis County Highway Commissioner."
