Harvey County Commissioner Ron Krehbiel died Saturday morning. He was 79.
Krehbiel served as a District 3 county commissioner for 20 years, with his first term beginning in 2001.
Prior to that, Krehbiel had a career in law enforcement, serving as deputy for the Harvey County Sheriff’s Office and later as undersheriff.
Krehbiel did not run for another term in the most recent election and instead chose to retire when his fifth term ended this month.
Don Schroeder was elected as the next District 3 commissioner, and was previously scheduled to be sworn in on Monday.
