On behalf of Alcona County Central Dispatch, I would like to take a moment and extend a heartfelt congratulations to our very own DeAnna L Dunn-McKenzie as she officially retires after 40 amazing years as an Alcona County 911 Dispatcher. DeAnna has touched so many lives and helped so many people during the best and worst times of their lives during her career. Her service, dedication, professionalism and compassion are unwavering. She is truly an inspiration for the next generation of 911 dispatchers and she will definitely be missed.

Below is a video of her send off via radio from her partner and fellow dispatcher, Sarah McLeod. Sarah did an amazing job making everyone, including herself, cry, but absolutely everything she said was true.

Thank you DeAnna for everything. You are absolutely the definition of the Thin Gold Line.

Enjoy your retirement, you have earned it.
