End Of Watch Announcement

Chief Harold “Harry” Ehret
Badge 7203

The Rice Township Police Department regretfully announces the untimely passing of Chief Harold “Harry” Ehret, Badge 7203. Chief Ehret entered into eternal rest on April 2, 2026, after a brief illness. Chief Ehret began his public service campaign first as a volunteer firefighter in the Hanover Township area and then went on to serve as a paramedic with the former Medic 301 based out of Nanticoke before starting his law enforcement career in Rice Township, where he has served since 1996.

Chief Ehret worked his way from a patrol officer with a passion for DUI enforcement to the rank of Sergeant, which he obtained in 2009. In December of 2021, he was promoted to Chief, the position he held until his passing. Chief Ehret was widely known in the community as being an approachable officer who would take the time to listen or assist with even the most minute issues someone brought to him. The Rice Township Police Department and Board of Supervisors thank Chief Ehret for his many years of service to the township!

Chief Ehret leaves behind his son, Brenden Ehret; stepdaughter, Morgan Melovitz; brother, Thomas Ehret; and sister, Melissa Poremba.

In keeping with the family’s wishes, a small graveside service to honor Chief Ehret’s life will be held from 11 a.m. to noon on Friday, April 10th, in Chapel Lawn Memorial Park, 4115 Memorial Highway, Dallas.
