Darla Eden, who succeeded Echols as Tax Commissioner, spoke with AccessWDUN and said of Echols, "Although I didn't have the pleasure of working directly with Mr. Echols, I sincerely appreciate and respect the love, respect and help that he demonstrated to our residents on a daily basis for 12 years. I admire him greatly and hope to carry on that legacy."
