On behalf of the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh community, I share condolences with the family, friends and colleagues of Fond du Lac County Executive Allen Buechel.
County Executive Buechel was the embodiment of thoughtful, steady, fair and kind leadership. He was committed to the people and purpose of his county and, for decades, was a champion for the university’s Fond du Lac campus. He truly loved it.
He will be missed but long remembered as an outstanding public administrator and the model of good governance.
