Effective at the end of his current term, a year from now.

Centre County Sheriff Denny Nau announces retirement

On Friday, Nau confirmed he will be hanging up that hat at the end of 2015, when his term concludes.

“That is true,” he told the Centre Daily Times in a quiet announcement of his retirement next year. “It’s just time.”

It isn’t that he is tired of it, or that he doesn’t like it anymore.

“I really enjoy it. I just have things I want to do in life,” Nau said.

Namely, he wants to spend more time in a kayak and casting his line into Centre County trout streams. He also wants to travel across America and visit national treasures such as Yellowstone and Yosemite.

That will be a big change for a guy who has been in uniform his entire adult life. The end of his term will cap 24 years of running the show as county sheriff. For 24 years before that, he was a Pennsylvania state trooper. Before picking law enforcement as his career, he joined the Marine Corps right out of high school. It was that background, he thinks, that helped him put his stamp on the department.
Anyone knows of any potential front-runner candidate for the sheriff position in the next election? We need to make sure the next sheriff is as pro-2a as Sheriff Nau!
