After 25 years on the job at ABC12, News Reporter Randy Conat has retired. His colleagues through the years all agree: Conat was not only a respected professional, but a genuinely nice guy, too. Born in Hillsdale, MI, he grew up on a farm in the little town of Reading. “I always had an interest in the news,” he shares, as he grew up watching respected TV newscasters the likes of Walter Cronkite, Dan Rather, Chet Huntley and David Brinkley. So, it came as no surprise that he studied journalism at University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, and built a career in the news business.
The Honorable Judith A. Fullerton has been a judge in the Seventh Judicial Circuit Court of Genesee County since January 1, 1983. She was initially elected to serve as a Flint District Judge in 1980. At the time, she was the only woman on the bench in the County, and paved the way for other female judges to follow. During her tenure as a Circuit Judge, she has seen many changes, including the transition from stenographic to video court reporting; establishment of the Family Court in 1999; sentencing guidelines for criminal cases; increased courtroom security, and the use of support dogs for children who are victims of sexual assault or abuse.
Greet Death has been busy. In 2017, the band released their debut album Dixieland through Flesh & Bone Records, started touring regularly and in new places, and even changed their name – snuffing out their old moniker, Pines, and being reborn under their new, ominous one. “It seemed like we weren’t doing enough,” says guitarist/vocalist Logan Gaval. “But, when we actually looked at what we’d been doing, it was about eight or nine weeks of touring in six months.” After getting started in the Greater Flint area as Pines in 2013, the Davisburg natives have now made fans all across the Midwest and East Coast.
