Former Ramsey County Commissioner was a "very special man"
St. Paul, MN - Congresswoman Betty McCollum (D-St. Paul) was informed today of the death of former Ramsey County Commissioner Hal Norgard while traveling with a congressional delegation in Iraq. The following is Rep. McCollum's statement:
"Hal Norgard was a wonderful man and friend. He was a man of boundless energy and a great heart. Most of all, I remember him as a person who loved his community like it was his family - because it was for him.
Hal's work on the Ramsey County Board helped so many people, most of whom will never know how this very special man worked so hard work to provide them with the opportunities they needed to improve their lives.
I will miss Hal and always remember him for his service and friendship."
