Milledgeville bartender has served for a Long time
By CODY CUTTER ccutter@shawmedia.com
MILLEDGEVILLE – It’s 2 p.m. on a weekday. Marilyn Long comes to work and takes her place behind the bar where she waits for her first customers of the day to drop in.
Through the front window looking out toward state Route 40, she sees a car slow down and turn into the driveway of Wally’s Playce, where she’s worked early afternoons for the past seven years.
If she recognizes the car, she knows who’s behind the wheel and that’s her cue to grab a can of beer from the cooler or mix a drink and have it ready before the car door closes and the bar door opens. She even remembers where they like to sit and that’s where she puts the drink.
It’s a familiar routine for the bar manager at Wally’s, and she’s a familiar face to the regulars who stop by to bend an elbow and bend her ear.
For Marilyn and the folks she serves, it’s their happy Playce.
While Long’s a pro at pouring a drink and setting up the suds, it’s the routine she appreciates – the people she meets, the regulars who stop by, the stories she hears. She’s at home behind the bar, and she makes her customers feel at home, too.
Wally’s is the latest in a long line of jobs in the service industry for Marilyn, and while her seven years at the same job is worth raising a glass to, that’s just the tip of the ice cube.
Marilyn has been in the food and drink business for nearly 50 years.
Most of that time has been spent behind the bar and in front of customers, and close to home, with the Milledgeville native working mostly in Carroll and Whiteside counties. She’s poured more drinks than she can count, and there’s not much she hasn’t seen or heard. But those decades of experience have given her a gift of gab that helps her strike up conversations with just about anyone who warms a bar stool or pulls up a chair.
She won’t reveal her exact age, other than to say that she’s in her 80s, but that hasn’t stifled her stamina. She can still stay on her feet the whole time she’s on the clock – and that’s even after she had to take a year off nearly a decade ago for hip surgery.
“I like the people, and I like to be busy,” Long said. “It keeps me going, the
customers keep me going. And I like my boss. They’re all good people. It gives me joy. I have my customers who come every day.”
Long tends to Wally’s early shifts: She’s there when the place opens at 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday until 6, from noon to 4 p.m. on Friday and from noon to 6 p.m. every other Saturday.
Long’s command of the bar, along with the respect she commands, has earned her the nickname “‘Ma” with both customers and staff. She’s even got a drink named after her: the Filthy Marilyn – a strong concoction of lemon juice, 7up, Seagram’s 7, dark cherry cocktail juice and a cherry. It’s only been her special drink for a few years, after learning about it from a visiting mixologist.
“I’ve been making a lot of those lately. It’s nice. I make them strong for everyone but me.”
While she’s become a familiar face at the Playce, Marilyn is no stranger to being recognized. Through the years, she’s also worked at Rhandy’s in Lanark, Spare Time Bowling Alley and Lucky Strike Lanes in Milledgeville (now The Other Bar), The Homestead in Sterling (recently where Candlelight Inn was in town), The Mill Wheel Tavern in Milledgeville, Manny’s in Freeport and Fulton and 28 years working four nights a week at Sievert’s
in Mount Carroll.
Long worked at Sievert’s throughout most of her time there while also working at Elkay in Lanark; she would drive from Lanark to Mount Carroll in her work uniform and change at Sievert’s.
“When I was young, I wanted to be an owner of a bar and a restaurant,” Long said. “It’s just never happened, but I’ve worked waitress jobs.”
Long came to Wally’s in 2018, not long after general manager Ken Duncan opened the place – named for Duncan’s stepfather Wally Mennenga. Long brought her wealth of bartending experience with her – a skill set that’s made “Ma” a favorite with customers, who treat her like family, bringing her Christmas and birthday gifts. She’s even got a fan club of sorts: The Friday Friends Club.
Duncan remembers being a kid and seeing Long when she worked at Sievert’s – and it would have been hard to miss her. She only missed one day of work during the nearly 30 years there; and she hasn’t missed a day at Wally’s yet.
“That’s just the work ethic she has,” Duncan said. “Everybody loves Marilyn. People come from all around to see Marilyn. At Christmas time, people will bring her gifts; one end of the bar was once piled with gifts for Marilyn. She’s a sweet lady.”
It’s not often that Long sees a former regular from her Sievert’s days at Wally’s, but every once in a while some will stop in. Having seen thousands of faces from behind the bar through the years, she doesn’t remember everyone she’s met – but they remember her. Recently, a group of four-wheelers stopped by, and “they came in and one of them said, ‘I remember you,’” Long said. “They were from Amboy. They came back. Great people.”
Times have changed since Long started in the business in the 1970s. There weren’t as many brands of beer back then as there are today, especially with craft varieties and there are always new cocktail recipes. If one comes up that Marilyn doesn’t know, she’ll ask the customer what’s in it. Another change she’s seen: smoke-free bars.
Long didn’t have her first drink until well into her tenure at Sievert’s, a refreshing sloe gin fizz cocktail, she recalled, with sloe gin, lemon juice, simple syrup and club soda. Another big change in the bar business since her early days is the drinking age, which was 19 in Illinois from 1973 to 1980, when it changed to 21.
When Long was in high school, Illinois’ drinking laws were unique: It was 18 for women and 21 for men until 1961,

Pantries prepare for pause in SNAP benefits
Whiteside, Lee counties’ food pantries bracing for greater demand
By PAYTON FELIX pfelix@shawmedia.com
Already struggling with growing numbers of people in need of food assistance, Sauk Valley-area food pantries now have braced for even greater numbers as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits are put on hold during the ongoing federal government shutdown.
Lee and Whiteside County food pantries had been seeing more families coming in the doors in need of food. And that number was expected to explode as SNAP benefits, which help about one in eight Americans buy groceries, dried up last weekend.
Dixon Community Food Pantry volunteers Ted McMillion (left) and Don Fane load up groceries Oct. 29. Pantries all over the area are expecting an increase in need with the suspension of SNAP benefits.
Dixon Community Food Pantry Director Josie Whaley told Shaw Local she’s had an uptick in families and a lot of them have never been to the food pantry before.
There’s also been an increase at the Morrison Food Pantry.
“I very possibly will break a record for this month,” Morrison Food Pantry Director Leveda Ashlin said, referring to the number of families served.
“A lot of times I wonder how we’re going to do it,” Ashlin said.
The Morrison pantry has served 72 families so far in October. The most it’s served in one month is 81, Ashlin said.
But the issue isn’t just the increased demand. It’s the supply shortages.
It’s “kind of scary right now because our food pantry is starting to run low and we’re having double the amount of [families] than what we normally get,”
HARLEY “RED” ERDMANN
Born: June 23, 1937 in Kewanee, IL
Died: October 29, 2025 in Sterling, IL
HARLEY “RED” ERDMANN, 88, of Sterling, Illinois, died Wednesday, October 29, 2025, at Rock River Hospice House in Sterling. There will be no visitation or funeral service.
A graveside service with military honors will be held at 11:00 AM on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, at Oak Knoll Memorial Park in Sterling, with Charlie Gaumer officiating. Memorials may be made to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital & Bethesda Lutheran Church in Morrison, IL.
Red was born June 23, 1937, in Kewanee, IL, the son of Zach T. and LuVern M. (Richards) Erdmann. He was educated in the Benton Street Grade Schools and graduated from Prophetstown High School. Red served as a teletype mechanic in the United States Air Force. On September 3, 1960, he married Joyce A. Springman at West Jordan Lutheran Church in Sterling. Red began working at the age of 15, alongside his twin brother, setting pins seven nights a week at the local bowling alley. He
Lt. Jessica Tosh of the Salvation Army Food Distribution Center in Sterling told Shaw Local.
Typically, a busy day for the Sterling pantry is serving about 14 families, but in the last two weeks that’s increased. One day the pantry saw 28 families come in, Tosh said.
The three pantry directors said they get most of their items from food banks – one is the Sauk Valley Food Bank. A food bank supplies places such as food pantries with items that are then distributed to those in need.
See FOOD PANTRIES on page 9
later worked as a fabrication maker at General Electric for 14 years and then at Wilco Rental in Sterling until his retirement. Red also served his community as a volunteer firefighter with the Morrison Fire Department. He and Joyce owned and operated Lake View Country Club in Sterling for 15 years, where many good memories and friendships were made. He was a member of Bethesda Lutheran Church in Morrison. Red was known for his good humor and could always be counted on to share a good joke to brighten someone’s day. He loved bowling and golfing, and especially enjoyed the simple pleasure of cutting wood. Harley was a die-hard Green Bay Packers fan all of his life.
Survivors include his wife, Joyce; one daughter, Shari (Alex) Gaumer of Sterling; two grandchildren, Dylan (Tori) Eilers and Sydni Eilers; and one great-grandson, Cooper Jude Eilers; two sisters, Amanda (Rodney) McNeill and Beverly Cooper, both of Prophetstown; one cousin, Norene Richards; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by two sons, Rodney and Jeffrey Erdmann; his twin brother, Harold & Mary Jane Erdmann; one brother in law, David Cooper; and two cousins, Eileen Reiley & Glen Richards.

Music from the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair will highlight the second concert of Clinton Symphony Orchestra’s 72nd season.
The concert will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 8, in Centennial Auditorium at Sterling High School.
Conductor Silas Nathanial Huff has chosen the Fair’s theme song, “A Century of Progress,” written by John Philip Sousa, to open the program, followed by a rhapsodic dance, “The Bamboula,” by a famed composer of that era, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. Duke Ellington, who was building his reputation and appeared at the Fair, will be represented by four of
his famous tunes.
The Chicago Symphony performed the first symphony written by an African-American woman, Florence Price.
“The music that attendees would have heard there illustrates a historic period marked by resilience, innovation, and the continual pursuit of progress, leaving lasting legacies that continue to inspire today,” Huff said.
The 1933 Chicago World’s Fair was a tremendous success. For five and a half months, the landmark event celebrated

Fulton council OKs payment to downtown construction contractor
The Fulton City Council on Monday, Oct. 27, approved paying $339,111 to McCarthy Improvement Co.
Construction on the road improvements have continued over the past few weeks, but concerns were raised about progress on the project and the concerns of business owners on Fourth Street.
The council also discussed an ordinance authorizing the purchase of real estate owned by Dan and Jill Nederhoff in the Fulton Industrial Park for the purpose of water main construction. While no official measure has been passed as of yet, the ordinance would authorize the purchase of the property for $19,650.
Mayor Shane Malone led discussion on appointing a mayor pro-tem in cases where he is unable to act. For reference, the previous mayor pro-tem, Keith King, presided over the City Council following the resignation of former Mayor Wendy Ottens up until the time Malone was elected and sworn in earlier this year.

Morrison Food Pantry, community need your help
As the government shutdown continues with no end in sight, many of our families, friends, neighbors and acquaintances are being impacted greatly. All pantries are seeing a big uptick in new clients registering for assistance.
Our pantry had 29 new client registrations in October, seven of which occurred on Oct. 30. For the month, we served 91 households with a total of 269 people in those households; 101 were children between the ages of newborn and 18.
Our average distributions for 2025 year to date were 64 families per month, an increase of 30% over the previous month.
According to a SNAP update received on Oct. 30 from the Illinois Department of Human Services via River Bend Food Bank, SNAP recipients should visit snapfederalimpact.illinois.gov for the most up-to-date information and to find food locally.
Here are some interesting facts about SNAP, as provided by IDHS: 1.9 million Illinoisans will go without SNAP benefits starting Nov. 1, 2025. Forty-five percent of those SNAP households have children, 44% include a person with a disability, and 37% include older adults living at home.
The SNAP program supports close to 20,000 jobs in local grocery stores, farming, manufacturing and transportation in Illinois. Every $1 invested in SNAP benefits yields an economic impact of $1.50 to our local communities, resulting in a $7.2 billion economic impact annually to the Illinois economy.
The above facts do not have a name or face associated with them unless you are working at a food pantry. Our pantry volunteers see fellow Morrison residents in need of a helping hand. Many may be embarrassed in having to ask for help or are seeking assistance for the first time. Many are having to ask for help after achieving a level of financial security and then having their SNAP assistance

suddenly being canceled. Some are being furloughed by their employers at no fault of their own.
Please help us help our neighbors. We need cash donations to help us purchase the food items we need to meet both current demands and this new surge. The food banks do not have the variety of food they had a year ago, prices have gone up, and that forces us to look at alternative sources to help provide food security. All monies donated stay here in Morrison to purchase needed supplies to distribute to our clients. Rest assured that we use our funds wisely to get the most out of each dollar we receive to serve our community.
Checks can be mailed to Morrison Charitable Food Pantry NFP, P.O. Box 324, Morrison, IL 61270. Cash and checks can be dropped off at our pantry location at 629 E. Lincolnway on Wednesday from 9 to 10 a.m. or Thursday from 7 to10 a.m. or given to one of our board members (listed below). If you wish to help but have limited
monetary resources, please consider donations of soap, shampoo, laundry and dish detergents, deodorants, Kleenex, etc. which are always needed. We do not purchase these items but rely on donations to provide them. We prefer smaller sizes of detergents as you can purchase more items allowing your donation dollars to go further. Dollar Tree, Dollar General and Walmart have the small size Dawn and Gain dish detergents.
No matter what the donation or size, rest assured that all donations are appreciated and needed.
Thank you Morrison for your continued support.

The people, “they fear how they’re gonna feed their families. The supply is just not there,” Whaley said.
While Sauk Valley Food Bank is running low on food, that’s not new, Executive Director Pam Martinez said.
“I’ve dealt with that for the last four years. It still has not recovered since the COVID-19 [pandemic],” Martinez said.
It has “hit harder” in October. Martinez closed several public giveaways in October, typically held every Saturday, because she didn’t have enough food, she said.
The Sterling and Morrison pantries’ main supplier is River Bend Food Bank based in Davenport, Iowa. That food bank supplies pantries in five Iowa and 18 Illinois counties, including Whiteside, Lee, Jo Daviess, Carroll, Henry, Bureau, La Salle and Putnam, among others.
“[River Bend] inventory is low,” Ashlin said.
“Their trucks have been getting lower and lower in what they deliver to us,” Tosh said.
Like Martinez, River Bend President and CEO Chris Ford told Shaw Local the fluctuations in inventory are typical for November and December.
But in light of the loss of SNAP benefits “we are absolutely preparing for an uptick,” Ford said.
Ford said River Bend is preparing a food and communication plan. It’s also reaching out to monetary donors and retailers for donations that it relies on for half the food it distributes.
If the government shutdown lasts more than a few months, “I would use the word ‘catastrophic’ to describe [the impacts],” Ford said.
He said for every one meal provided by a food bank, SNAP benefits provide nine.

that can fill that gap,” Ford said.
The pantries also get food through donations, food drives or grocery stores.
Whaley said the Dixon pantry has seen some success with those tactics, but, Tosh said, donations at the Sterling pantry have decreased.
“I think that part of it is because people that maybe have donated in the past are now the people that are in need,” Tosh said.
Ford said River Bend is viewing the situation as a preview of what’s to come and is also preparing for an uptick in October 2026 when major cuts to SNAP go into effect.
“We’re going to be right back in the same situation on a permanent basis,” Ford said. “It is more critical now than ever that people donate ... [and] volunteer wherever and whenever they can.”
How to donate, where to get food
All five organizations are accepting money, food and other needed supply
donations. The pantry directors said $1 is equivalent to five meals.

Dixon High School graduate Gehlbach returning to play
Phidian Musicale on Nov. 6
SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com
Thomas Gehlbach has enjoyed playing piano for the past 40 years.
Gehlbach will share that enjoyment by playing in the Phidian Musicale at 7 p.m. Nov. 6 at The Next Picture Show, 113 W. First St. in Dixon. It is free and open to the public.
Gehlbach graduated from Dixon High School with the Class of 1996 and from Truman State University, where he was a piano accompanist for the jazz show choir, musical theater productions and vocal major students.

when it become 21 for both, and then reduced 12 years later.
“I can remember when I was 18, they would ask me to buy booze for them,” Long said. “My dad would have killed me if I had a drink.”
Marilyn isn’t the only attraction at Wally’s: Duncan had a large collection of empty pop cans from the 1980s and ’90s – popular brands, off-brands, Aldi store cans and even the yellow with black cans of generic beer sold at Eagle Foods – cleaned and hot glued to one of the walls. The display often sparks memories and conversations among customers. They can even be a challenge, with customers tasked with figuring out the total number of cans, finding the lone beer can in the bunch, locating the one can displayed upside down and finding all 49 state-themed 7up cans, and then figuring out which state is missing.
Winners of the pop can challenge earn a kiss from the bartender, at their discretion of course.
“I always tell my staff: ‘Why do people come to a bar? If they just wanted to drink, they’d go by a 30-pack, sit in their garage and drink,” Duncan said. “They
Although there are never enough hours in the day for music, Gehlbach enjoys sitting at the piano whenever the opportunity arises. He said he is particularly grateful for this opportunity to share music in Dixon.
He will perform a two-part concert featuring music selections composed by Johann Sebastian Bach, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Franz Schubert, Ludwig van Beethoven, Claude Debussy, Johannes Brahms and Carl Maria von Weber.
come here for camaraderie, conversation and entertainment. They come to the bar for the social environment. She’s ‘Ma’ to everyone.”
Kenny Stanley of Coleta is one of Long’s regulars. Long said her favorite memory of Stanley was a time when he brought her sweet corn – and Marilyn? She’s his favorite of Wally’s bartenders.
“It’s close to home. There’s friendly people here. I like my booze. This is a good place, and it has to do with the atmosphere. I can come in here and I can tease a lot of people. I’d rather go here than any other bar,” he said.
Duncan has come to appreciate not just the skills Marilyn brings to his business, but her terrific personality, friendly smile and her caring and trustworthiness, he said.
“She found her home here, that’s for sure,” Duncan said. “She has a home here as long as she wants it.”
And Long is happy to have found it: “This is my home away from home,” she said. “I like people. They bring joy to me. That’s my life. They make my life.”
Wally’s Playce, 6 S. Washington St. in Milledgeville, is open from 2 p.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday, noon to 1 a.m. Friday and Saturday, and noon to 10 p.m. Sunday. Find it on Facebook for more information.
