We are referring to Raegan Cox, the 11-year-old daughter of Heather and Craig Cox. Heather is an assistant vice president of Liberty National Bank in Ada, and Craig manages a Lima Save-A-Lot. The family lives in Miller City where Raegan is a sixth grader.

We asked Heather to write a few words about their experience at Cobo Hall in Detroit when Raegan was invited to audition for a popular NBC TV show.

Heather wrote:
"Raegan left for America’s Got Talent Detroit auditions at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 7.

Why your leaves weren't picked up

Posted by Fred Steiner on Wednesday, November 18, 2015

Leaf pick-up will be delayed this week, due to a problem with the vehicle that collects the leaves.

Ada Assistant Administrator Jamie Hall said the machine developed a leak in its radiator and is being serviced.

“We’re already getting some calls,” Hall said of the delays.  He said he expects the vehicle to be back in service before the end of the week.

Leaves are picked up Monday through Friday through November. (Amy Eddings photo)
