He treated everyone he came in contact with respect and knew how to make someone’s day better,” Justin Hoyal, police chief, said. “We are so grateful for the Honor Network to have brought the United States Honor Flag to Holladay to remember Doug’s service and sacrifice. He will never be forgotten.” Barney served in law enforcement for 18 years with the Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office, Taylorsville City Police Department and Unified Police Department.
