Sending thoughts and prayers to all those affected during this difficult time.

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of a dedicated public servant, respected leader, and cherished friend within our law enforcement family.

Today, we join the Centerton Police Department, the Benton County Sheriff’s Office, and law enforcement agencies across our region in mourning the loss of an individual whose commitment to serving others left a lasting impact on countless lives. Their dedication, professionalism, and unwavering support of fellow officers exemplified the very best of public service.

Out of respect for the family, additional details will be released at a later time. We ask that everyone keep his family, friends, coworkers, and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

The legacy of service, compassion, and leadership he leaves behind will never be forgotten.

Rest easy, brother. Your watch has ended, and we will take it from here. 💙🖤

Mayor Bill Edwards

Today I had fun playing in the Washington County Republican Women Driving Freedom Forward Golf Tournament. Our team finished 2nd, shooting a -17 (54).

Thank you to the Washington County Republican Women for hosting such a great event.

Centerton is growing fast, and that’s something to be proud of. But growth without a plan can quickly become a problem. We need thoughtful, accountable development that keeps up with our roads, utilities, and neighborhoods, without losing what makes our city special. Growth should work for our community, not the other way around.

This Memorial Day, we pause to remember and honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

Their sacrifice is the reason we have the freedoms we enjoy today, and it’s something we should never take for granted.

As we spend time with family and friends, let’s take a moment to reflect, remember, and express our gratitude to those who made it all possible.

Centerton isn’t just where I live; it’s where I’ve built my life, raised my family, and put down roots for over 25 years.

I’m running because I believe our city deserves leadership that listens, communicates clearly, and plans for the future the right way. Growth is happening, and we have a responsibility to get it right.

I’m ready to serve Ward 1 and be a voice for our community.

This afternoon, I stopped by the first Centerton Farmers Market of the season and loved seeing our community out enjoying it together. It was great catching up with neighbors and meeting local vendors. Looking forward to many more conversations like these. @ The City of Centerton, Arkansas Government

Tonight, I sat in on the Centerton City Council meeting to see firsthand what’s being discussed and decided for our city. Being present matters to me, listening to the conversations, understanding the challenges, and staying connected to what’s happening in Ward 1. And that's a commitment I intend to keep long after Election Day.

Happy Mother’s Day to my wife, Erin - the heart of our family and the person who keeps everything grounded.

She’s an incredible mom, a constant source of support, and the reason our home is filled with love, patience, and strength every single day. Watching her raise our kids has been one of the greatest blessings of my life.

Today, we celebrate her and all the amazing mothers who pour so much into their families and our community.

This morning, I attended Coffee with the Mayor and had the chance to share my campaign for Centerton City Council, Ward 1, Position 2.

It was great talking with residents, hearing what’s important to the community, and having real conversations about where we’re headed. Thank you to Centerton Mayor-Bill Edwards for hosting Coffee with the Mayor and providing a great space for Centerton residents to connect, ask questions, and stay informed.

This morning, I attended the Centerton Area Chamber Business Brew and enjoyed visiting with people who care about our community and its future.

Centerton is growing because of the great people who live and work here, and it was good to connect with so many neighbors and local leaders. Today also marks the first day of collecting signatures to get on the ballot, and I’m excited to keep meeting with residents across Ward 1 and listening to what matters most to them.
