“I regret to inform you that we, the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office, have lost one of our own today. Sergeant Mike Wilson lost his battle with terminal illness this morning,” Said Putnam County Sheriff Eddie Farris. “It was certainly the citizens of Putnam County’s gain to have Sergeant Wilson serving us. He gave 19 years to our County as a servant, and he was an exemplary employee.
It has been my privilege to work with Mike during my tenure as Sheriff, and he will be greatly missed by his Sheriff’s Office family. Our prayers go out to his wife Amy and his sons Alex and Jackson. The family is accepting donations in his memory through the “Michael’s Battle” GoFundMe account. ”
