Nobles County Attorney Joseph Sanow died over the weekend in a motorcycle accident, the Nobles County Administrator reported to county employees Monday morning.

“It’s with great grief to inform you of the passing of County Attorney Joseph Sanow,” Bruce Heitkamp wrote. “Joe was involved in a motorcycle accident in the Madison, South Dakota area. Those are the known details relating to this event.”

According to Benson Funeral Home, Sanow died Saturday at Madison Regional Health System in Madison. Heitkamp added in his email that “we’re all searching for answers” and that “the Attorney’s Office personnel don’t have any more answers than what I can provide at this point in time,” asking that people don’t reach out to the County Attorney’s Office for any information.

Heikamp said Deputy County Attorney Braden Hofert will be the Acting County Attorney until county commissioners can make an appointment. Benson Funeral Home states that visitation for Sanow will be from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Worthington. The funeral service will be at 10:30 a.m. Friday at St. Mary’s.
