After 49 years of work, Bonnie Ellis is retiring today.

Bonnie has served the last 15 years as office manager of KHBM, KGPQ, and KXSA. She began her work career as a teenager in Clara Bailey’s beauty shop.

Her immediate plans include spending time with her family.

As an “extended coworker”, you’ve been great to work with.

Happy birthday,

Caliber is home safe and sound.

Thank you
Amy”

Sometimes “Big Stories” are important; but sometimes it’s the “little things” that mean the most.

MLive’s “Lost Pet” posts continue to be the reason dozens of pets find their owners within hours of being posted on MLive.

Just email a photo, a “last seen near…”, and a phone number to joe@MonticelloLive.com, if your pet wanders away.
