Officer Tom Poulin, center, says goodbye to fellow Auburn police officers, Travis Barnies, left, and Bryan Parker during a short end-of-service ceremony in the courtyard of the Auburn Police Department on Friday morning. Poulin put in 29 years with the Auburn Police Department and most recently was a school resource officer. When Poulin received his retirement badge, he advised his fellow officers: “Don’t let the badge define your personality. Let your personality define the badge.” (Andree Kehn/Sun Journal)
