(BY:  .North Dakota Monitor) – Colleagues of North Dakota Rep. Cindy Schreiber-Beck are remembering her as a stalwart advocate for education, aviation and agricultural issues.

Schreiber-Beck, R-Wahpeton, died at age 70. She was first elected to the North Dakota Legislature in 2014 and served as vice chair of the House Education Committee during the legislative session that adjourned earlier this month.

Schreiber-Beck’s expertise on K-12 education, higher education, aeronautics and agricultural issues was unparalleled, said her seatmate, Rep. Alisa Mitskog, D-Wahpeton.

“She truly represented her constituents, set aside partisan politics and she really went to work for the people she represented,” Mitskog said Tuesday.
