ANNIVERSARY KUDOS…
Unfortunately, these don’t always appear in the actual month of the anniversary but we think they are still worth noting:
✔ Liz Durham is celebrating her 10th year in business with Meadow Valley Grooming. Liz’s specialty is dog grooming.
✔ Levi and Patty Pence note their third year as owners of Hi-Tech Frame and Finish. The two were both longtime Hi-Tech employees prior to buying the auto body repair business on Industrial Way in Quincy. They pride themselves on providing quality work and exceptional customer service.
