I would like to give out blossoms to the city workers who get out in bad weather (in the wee hours of the morning) to make our streets safe for us to get to work and schools. They don't get the credit they all deserve ... thank you. - Glenda Gerber



A blossom: We would like to take this opportunity to thank Monroe business owner Geri Karlen for her excellent customer service through the decades on the Square. Her loyalty to the community was exhibited in her final closing sale which provided generous opportunities to purchase retail items of value and distinction. In a day and age of redundant and substandard retail choices, her store will be missed. - Connie Driver, Monroe, and Karen Knipschild, Madison
