Detective Garda Joe Esler served Longford with the utmost professionalism. That was the sentiment expressed by all at Longford District Court last week when the retiring Detective called in to say goodbye.
Judge Seamus Hughes noted the fact that Detective Esler was “very young” to retire but wished him well, stating that he was always very professional and very easy to work with during his 30-plus years serving on the force.
“I always respected you and your views and I wish you the very best with your retirement,” he said.
