Mayfield graduated Warren County Senior High in 1970 and furthered his education at Motlow State and Liberty University. He has been married for 33 years to the former Katy Julian. They have one daughter, Amy, and a granddaughter, Katy Mae Cantrell.
?I am a veteran of foreign war and am proud to have served my country for over 20 years in the U.S. Navy,? Mayfield said. ?During my tours of duty, I have been on several ships and completed several overseas deployments. I have supervised as few as one and as many as 100 and been responsible for a budget well in the hundreds of thousands.?
Mayfield has been awarded seven medals by the Secretary of the Navy and over 25 letters on the command level for excellence in management and leadership skills.
?I have written proof of my work ethics and leadership abilities,? Mayfield said.
Mayfield said it is a pleasure to continue his work as an advocate for veterans. He is currently serving on the advisory board for the Age and Disability Upper Cumberland South. He is a member of the American Legion, Disabled American Veterans, National Association of County Veterans and a life member of the VFW.
He and his wife attend Arlington Church of Christ. His family remained here during his military career.
?I have been extremely blessed through the people of Warren County and have always been proud to call this home,? Mayfield said. ?Those who know me will tell you, not only am I honest, I?m the same person day in and out, whether I see you at church or at the store.
?David Smartt and staff are doing an outstanding job and I know without a doubt I have the experience and ability to continue smooth operation of the clerk?s office. If elected I will always be looking for better ways to serve the citizens of Warren County. I am asking for your vote May 2.?
