(l-r) Sheriff Geoff Dean presenting Fillmore Police Chief Dave Wareham with a retirement badge for his 32 years of service to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department. A standing room only full house enjoyed the retirement party for Fillmore Police Chief Dave Wareham. The function occurred at the Fillmore Memorial Building Saturday. Dave spoke movingly of his 32 years on the Ventura County Sheriff's Department. Our County Sheriff Geoff Dean attended with a crowd of former and active deputies who worked closely with Wareham over the years. Also attending, special note, was our legendary former Ventura County Sheriff, Larry "Carp" Carpenter. Everyone enjoyed a great steak dinner.
