Hometown Hero of the Week: Brad Summerlin, August 6th, 2025

Hometown Hero of the Week: Brad Summerlin, August 6th, 2025

Our QDR Hometown Hero of the Week is Brad Summerlin, Sergeant for the Rocky Mount Police Department. 

Brad was nominated by his wife Paige Summerlin, who says, “Sergeant Summerlin works as the SRO supervisor.  He has been involved in multiple areas of the police department since starting his career and has tons of training and extra certificates that has helped him learn and advance along the way.  He has experience in swat, sniper and other tactical advancements. He has been the recipient of the “lifesaving” award in the past. I feel that he deserves this special recognition because of his dedication to his community and employer over the years.  He truly cares and he has truly made a difference in so many lives. He is an all-around great officer and person in general.”

Thank you, Brad, for your service! As a token of our appreciation, we’re sending you a $50 gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q to thank you for all you do.
