She was honored years ago as the Citizen of the Year and more recently as a Top Drawer Award winner from the Chamber of Commerce. She and her business partner MARK OSBORNE came to ELLSWORTH in 1982, putting on a new radio station. They sold that station and purchased Star 97.7 in 2005. She was a fierce advocate for animal welfare, volunteering early mornings to feed stray cats at shelters.”
