Pendleton library
receives literacy grant
PENDLETON — The Pendleton
Public Library is excited to announce it
has been awarded a $10,000 grant from
the Early Childhood Family Support
Fund of the Oregon Community Foun-
dation.
Library Director Jennifer Cost-
ley shared in a press release that the
money will allow the library to replace
well-loved board books, improve the
library’s collection of materials that
support key kindergarten readiness
benchmarks, advertise library off er-
ings via news and radio and award
families who attend six summer story
times with a one-year family pass to the
Children’s Museum of Eastern Oregon.
In addition, Costley said library
story times strive to model the six early
literacy skills in a way that is acces-
sible to parents and fun for children.
Each week, kids learn to love reading,
tell their own stories, recognize letters,
shapes and colors, listen carefully and
play with others in a literacy rich envi-
ronment.
Costley said she hopes the incentive
to attend story times brings new fami-
lies into the library and is it exciting to
be able to off er a Children’s Museum
membership, as imaginative play is an
excellent way for children to develop
narrative skills, a key tool for learning
to read.
For more information, contact Cost-
ley at 541-966-0386 or jennifer.cost-
ley@ci.pendleton.or.us.

LOS ANGELES — Frank
Bonner, who played a brash
salesman with an aff ection for
polyester plaid suits on the TV
comedy “WKRP in Cincin-
nati,” has died. He was 79.
Bonner died Wednesday,
June 16, from complications
of Lewy body dementia, said
his daughter, Desiree Boers-
Kort. The actor died at his
home in Laguna Niguel, south
of Los Angeles.
He had been diagnosed
about three years ago with
the disease that leads to wors-
ening mental and physical
complications.
“WKRP in Cincinnati”
aired from 1978-82 and was
set in a lagging Ohio radio
station trying to reinvent itself
with rock. The cast included
Gary Sandy, Tim Reid,
Howard Hesseman and Jan
Smithers, alongside Bonner
as subpar ad salesman Herb
Tarlek.
Loni Anderson, who
played the station’s empow-
ered receptionist Jennifer,
said she was “heartbroken”
over his death.
“Frank Bonner was like
family,” Anderson said in a
statement. “He was one of the
funniest men I had the plea-
sure of working with and he
was the nicest man I have ever
known.”
Boers-Kort said her father
valued his time on the sitcom
in part because it led him
toward the career he favored
over acting — directing.
After taking on that job for six
episodes of “WKRP,” he went
on to direct for more than a
dozen other 1980s and 1990s
shows including “Simon &
Simon,” “Who’s the Boss”
and “Saved by the Bell: The
New Class.”
Bonner continued to act,
including in the early 1990s
sequel “The New WKRP
in Cincinnati,” “Scarecrow
and Mrs. King” and “Night
Court.”
“He did prefer the behind-
the-camera (work), and he
thoroughly enjoyed helping
people get to where he needed
them to be for the scenes,”
Boers-Kort said. “He was
very humble and down-to-
earth, and just a nice, kind
human.”
He got a kick out of Herb’s
ill-advised wardrobe and
kept some of the belts when
the show ended, his daugh-
ter said. He was fond of them
because he knew the char-
acter’s style was “one of the
things that people loved about
him.”
A native of Arkansas
whose birth name was Frank
Boers Jr., he was raised in the
city of Malvern. His Holly-
wood career began in the
1970s with the fi lm “Equinox”
and on TV dramas, including
“The Young Lawyers” and
“Mannix.”
Bonner is survived by his
wife, Gayle Hardage Bonner,
who was his high school
sweetheart in Malvern. The
pair reunited and eventually
wed four decades later and
after previous marriages for
both, his daughter said.
Other survivors include
sons Matthew and Justine
Bonner; stepdaughter DeAn-
dra Freed; seven grandchil-
dren and a great-grandchild.
Bonner was preceded in death
by his son, Michael.
