We would like to recognized and thank Chief Will Harryman for his incredible service to Klickitat County EMS District #1 and to the EMS profession.
Will dedicated 43 years to EMS, serving our community in many different roles throughout his career. At KCEMS1, Will served as a part-time and full-time paramedic, Administrative Assistant and as our Chief of EMS Operations. Throughout each role, Will led with professionalism, integrity, and a genuine commitment to providing the best possible care to our patients and support to our staff.
Last Friday, July 31, we had the privilege of celebrating Will's retirement with family, friends, current and former coworkers. It was a wonderful opportunity to reflect on his career, share memories, and thank him for the lasting impact he has made on our organization.
On behalf of our EMS Board of Commissioners and everyone at KCEMS1, thank you, Chief Harryman, for your leadership, mentorship, and dedication over the years. Your contributions have helped shape our district and will continue to benefit our community for years to come.
We wish you nothing but happiness, good health, and success as you begin this next chapter. Congratulations on your well-earned retirement—you've certainly earned it!
Thank you for 43 years of service to EMS. You will always be a part of the KCEMS1 family.
William Harryman
