We moved to Friday Harbor in 2017 and met Ron over coffee and street chats shortly thereafter. Through our conversations, we have gotten to know Ron and have come to appreciate his professional competence and as importantly his love of community and his genuine concern for people. Additionally, we sense a fairness in listening and embracing “the rest of the story” mindset as law enforcement requires discerning judgment. We have personally seen him on his “days off” reach out to others in need and lend a helping hand. We can’t imagine a more suitable Sheriff for our islands than Ron Krebs.
On Sept. 27, at approximately 11:45 a.m. a Lopez Island resident reported to the Sheriff’s Office they had seen a report on Facebook of a vehicle associated with stealing mail, and that they observed a vehicle they thought matched the description.
