The Senate of the State of Texas has passed a resolution recognizing Constable Clarence Yarbrough for his remarkable career in law enforcement, spanning over five decades. Beginning his service in 1974 with the Nacogdoches County Sheriff's Office, Yarbrough has shown a steadfast commitment to public safety through various roles, including his time as the first public relations officer for the Nacogdoches Police Department and as one of the founding officers of the Nacogdoches Independent School District Police Department. Elected as Constable of Nacogdoches County Precinct Two in 2016, he has been re-elected in 2020 and 2024, establishing himself as one of the most experienced peace officers in the county's history.

In addition to his law enforcement career, Yarbrough has served as the pastor of Johnson Chapel Baptist Church for over 40 years, demonstrating his dedication to both community service and spiritual leadership. His legacy continues through his two sons, who have also pursued successful careers in law enforcement. The resolution commends Constable Yarbrough for his exemplary service and contributions to the state, reflecting the high ideals of law enforcement and community service. A copy of the resolution will be prepared for him as a token of esteem from the Texas Senate.
