Spring, 2013 – The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office held their annual awards banquet on January 12th, 2013. Our attendance this year was overwhelming with approximately 100 people in attendance. We were honored by retired Sheriff Darrell Hill and his wife, Dee, and County Commissioners Rod Runyon, Steve Kramer, and Scott Hege.

The award recipients are selected by their peers from each discipline within the Sheriff Office. This year’s award winners were Deputy Jeremy Dutton from the Patrol Division. Parole and Probation selected Probation Officer Shawn Sorenson as Employee of the Year. Dispatch selected Kathy Evinger as Dispatcher of the Year. Volunteer persons receiving awards this year were Lance and Keri Kublic from Search and Rescue, Captain William Getz from the Wasco County Mounted Posse, and Captain Tonya Harth from the Wasco County reserve unit. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude and appreciation for the dedication and commitment that each of these individuals has given to Wasco County Sheriff Office.

Civil Deputy Sonja (Sunny) Talatzko will be retiring on March 1st, 2013, after 14-years of service with Wasco County. Sunny was responsible for all of the civil papers, sheriff sales concealed handgun permits and many other duties. The knowledge and skills that Sunny has acquired during this time will truly be missed by the private business sector, as well as the citizens of the county. I would like to wish all the best to Sunny in her retirement.
