And they've, you know, people should be very, very appreciative of what, what we have here and the relationships of how everybody works together. And the ambulance services, rice county is a, a special place. And, and, um, so it's, you know, I can't say enough of the working with everybody within the Sheriff's office and within rice county and with everybody throughout, um, the county and the state, you know, the different fire departments, whether they're volunteer or full time. And I'm blessed to have great staff and, um, been able to hire many people work with many people over the years that are now retired and we've lost some very good friends over the years, um, you know, too early. You know, not only in the Sheriff's office but yeah, I, I, you I'd be remiss if I didn't say Gordy that the, the Sheriff's office is what it is because of the people that work there. Gordy Kosfeld ( 01:53): Well, you got to work with a lot of good people over the years, right there at the Sheriff's office. So, um, when the mosquitoes come back out in the summertime, probably back, be back here for a little bit visiting and, and, uh, seeing some of the great times of, uh, Minnesota here. ![]() And, but, um, and obviously we'll be back here because this is our home for both of us and we still have family and friends here. Um, so I'm gonna hang it up a year early and, and, uh, go south and, uh, hopefully, um, you know, start the next chapter in my life, whatever that may be, whether it means more golf or, um, you know, I'll, I'm sure I'll do something part-time once, uh, once we get settled in. And we did not obviously wanna live apart. And, um, so I, uh, it's something that we've talked about for many years and, and, uh, we didn't necessarily expect it to happen this year, but, um, with job changes for her, it made the most sense. My, obviously my wife will continue to work and, and, um, so I'll be closer to her and will be in warmer place that, uh, is I think a little, obviously a little more tolerable, um, you know, than the winter month be here in Minnesota. We're we're gonna, we're gonna leave the great state of Minnesota to warmer climate and, um, settle into our next phase. Gordy Kosfeld ( 00:20): Yeah. But I understand that you and the wife are heading west, go west young man, go west. And, um, and for my staff, because I feel blessed, I've been able to serve a majority of my, um, career in public safety and law enforcement here in my hometown and in my home county here in rice county.
