Holly Jaynes will serve as Hawkins County’s clerk & master for just a few more days, The Rogersville Review reports. On Thursday of last week, family members, friends, elected officials and members of the local judicial community gathered in the chancery courtroom to honor the longtime public servant who is retiring. Current and former judges praised her work and Chancellor Douglas Jenkins read a resolution in her honor being sponsored in the Tennessee General Assembly by local legislators. The event also included the swearing in of Jaynes’s successor, Brent Price. Though Price’s term will not start until July 1, the ceremony was held early to accommodate the schedule of several judges. Price previously worked at Civis Bank as vice president and branch manager. He has experience in real estate, financial matters and state and federal regulations.
