Commissioners recognize employees for years of dedicated service

Weld County, CO – Years of service add up to more than time on the calendar – they represent dedication, teamwork, and a commitment to serving the community day in and day out. The Weld County Board of Commissioners proudly recognizes county employees who reached significant service milestones in 2025, honoring the people whose experience, professionalism, and passion help keep Weld County Government running strong.

‘These milestones represent more than years of service, they reflect the experience, institutional knowledge, and public-service commitment that keep Weld County Government strong,’ said Perry Buck, Weld County Commissioner Chair. ‘We are grateful for the work these employees do every day on behalf of our community.’

Employees from 14 departments were recognized for their years of service, with department supervisors sharing remarks about the individual contributions and day-to-day impact each employee has within their teams. Before presenting commemorative pins, supervisors highlighted how these employees support county operations and serve residents in meaningful ways, with each set of remarks reflecting a shared sense of appreciation for the work being done across the organization.

‘Weld County employees are the key to our success,’ Brenda Dones, Weld County Assessor, told her employees during the recognition. ‘The people are the heart, the soul, the way we get things done here.’

Seventy-six employees received 10-year pins, 27 received 20-year pins and 2 received 30-year pins. The 30-year employees were Kyle Ragland and Bryan Garcia.
