ELLENSBURG, Wash. — Former Kittitas County Sheriff Bob McBride died Tuesday at Virginia Mason Hospital in Seattle following a stroke he suffered last week, county officials said.
McBride retired from the Washington State Patrol in 1986 and was subsequently appointed sheriff, a post he held until his retirement in 1998.
He served for several years on the boards of the National Traffic Safety Commission and the Kittitas County Fair and was an active hunter and snowmobiler.
Information on services will be forthcoming.
