BERNARD HANSE

Bernard “Barney” William Hanse was born August 31, 1944 in Britton, SD and passed away on Monday, December 12, 2022 at the age of 78.

The family of Barney Hanse thoughtfully invite his friends to his graveside service on Friday, June 2nd at 3:00pm at the Britton Cemetery. Following his burial his family would like to invite all to join for refreshments at the home of Roger and Shirley Schuller (4 1/2 miles South of Highway 10 or 3 1/2 miles North of Claremont on 410th Ave) for a time of remembrance. The icy roads and snowy weather prohibited a time of fellowship after his funeral last December 30th.

Poll: REGIONS FOR AMBULANCE SERVICE? A legislative task force is considering a plan to organize South Dakota’s ambulance services into eight to 14 regions, potentially with state oversight and funding to help keep emergency medical services sustainable. The proposal comes as many ambulance services face financial challenges, low reimbursement rates and an aging, often volunteer workforce. Lawmakers say the goal is to ensure an ambulance can respond when someone calls 911, but establishing the regions and determining how they would be funded could take years. Do you support creating regional ambulance service systems with state oversight and potential state funding?

Yes, regional systems could help ensure reliable ambulance service.

No, ambulance services should remain organized locally.

Unsure. I would need more information about how it would work.
