On behalf of POINT 27, we would like to offer condolences for Deputy Sheriff Sheldon G. Whiteman. Please know we are eternally grateful for Sheldon’s service and his ultimate sacrifice.

To honor Deputy Whiteman, POINT 27 sent 27 Thin Blue Line Dog Tag Necklaces, engraved with “Blessed are the Peacemakers for they will be called children of God” Matthew 5:9, to the Long County Georgia Sheriff’s Department for Sheldon’s partner and fellow officers. POINT 27 sent Folded Flag Necklaces engraved with “Greater Love has no one than this; than to lay down one’s life for one’s friend” John 15:13 for Deputy Whiteman’s wife and children.
