 CHIEF JOE RENZI

I graduated from Iroquois High School in 1969 and went into the Marines a week later for 3 years, honorably discharged as a Sergeant.  I then spent several years studying and teaching martial arts (primarily Chinese Kenpo) and have attained the rank of 6th degree black belt. In July of last year I was honored to be inducted into the Kenpo Hall of Fame.

In 1977, I became re-acquainted with my high school sweetheart, Nancy. We married in 1980 and are raising 3 children, Nora, Madeline, and Nick. I also have a 5 year old grandson. I graduated from U of L in 1981, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Police Administration. I returned to U of L several years later and worked on my Masters Degree in Elementary Education, student teaching and taking classes during the day and policing at night.

In 1978 I started my career in police week for the City of Plantation. I went to work for the City of Devondale in 1979, becoming their Chief in 1980. Several years later Devondale merged with the City of Graymoor and became the City of Graymoor-Devondale. I was the Chief for 28 years before retiring in April of this year and joining the Strathmoor Village Police Dept.
