Meet Sam Iselin

Sam Iselin has been a volunteer with us for the past ten years. He assists the public as a fingerprint technician and works in the lobby as a greeter. One of the keys to his success and longevity is his infectiously positive attitude. Some people deplete you. I draw energy from Sam. He truly makes my day every time I see him. I am writing about Sam because we celebrated his 96th birthday last week. It was a great time to recognize his contribution to improving our quality of life. Erica Reuter was kind enough to put together a brief video about Sam.

We would all do well to follow Sam's example. He is an exceptional individual, simply because of his positive attitude and his heart for serving others. Thanks, Sam.

Congratulations Sam and Happy Birthday! I met you the first day I walked into the BRPD - as a nervous and novice reporter in June 2000. It's so wonderful to see you're still there. You're a true asset to the department - and a great man!
