Powell joins distinguished club of former Carroll County
Chiefs of Staff Eagle Archives by Kevin Dayhoff May 5, 2014
The recent resignation of Steve Powell, chief of staff for
the Board of Commissioners for Carroll County, brought back memories of other
distinguished individuals in county history who have endured that arduous
position: Richard "Pat" Hill, Robert A. "Max" Bair and
George A. Grier, to name a few.
In full disclosure, this writer had the honor and privilege
to have worked with every county chief of staff — executive assistant — since
the position was created in 1959.

Whether you agreed or disagreed with them, those who have
held the position deserve a special place in our hearts and prayers for their
service and commitment to Carroll County; for it is a wonder they are able to
retire and not be committed: On any given day, the chief must keep the wheels
of government running smoothly.
[…]
Often, my visits to the office of the chief of staff
reminded me of the lyrics to the 1970 David Bowie song, "All the
Madmen": "Day after day / They take some brain away / Then turn my
face around / To the far side of town / And tell me that it's real / Then ask me
how I feel." http://youtu.be/jb7Xdu7STx8

Meanwhile, it is only fitting that Powell will be leaving to
take a job in a retirement home — as vice president of finance for Carroll
Lutheran Village. Join me in wishing him the best.
