Continuing in his forbearer's' footsteps, Mayor Ward will tell anyone Linden is a beautiful place to start a family, educate our children, work, play and retire. After all, his family has been here for generations, he grew up and went to school here, and now has served in public service, as did his father before him.

Wess is a native to Perry County and has been married to his wife, Lindsey for 5 years. He serves as the Director to our 911 Emergency Dispatch Board, a member of the Town of Linden Fire Department, and is the Title VI Director for City Hall. Mayor Ward has helped our Town grow and is a big advocate for tourism within our town.
