Submitted by Cameron1 on

Milam County Judge David Barkemeyer announced today that all county offices will be closed Monday, July 30, as a memorial to Sheriff David Greene.

This includes all commissioner's precincts. This will allow all county employees to attend the funeral.

Funeral services will be held on July 30 at 10 a.m. at the Bell County Expo Center in Belton.

"We all pay tribute to the passing of our recognized leader of law enforcement in the county, as well as our Brown Santa who each year lead the effort to raise thousands to fund the toy drive which brought Christmas to underpriviliged kids throughout the county," Barkemeyer said.

A caravan of law enforcement vehicles from throughout Central Texas will leave Cameron at 6:30 a.m. Monday to escort the Sheriff to the Expo Center for the funeral.
