Monowi, Boyd County, Nebraska, USA.
Meet Ms. Elsie Eiler, who is a 91-year-old solitary soul living in the town for two long decades. All alone.
She and her husband, Rudy, had been the only residents in the town, but she sadly lost her husband in 2004.
She’s the mayor, treasurer, clerk, secretary and librarian. And she owns Eiler’s Monowi Tavern Restaurant and Bar.
Tavern has been her longstanding job since 1971. She has been pulling it through despite her age.
Monowi was once a railroad town in the 1930s with farming as mainstay. There were about 120 businesses, including grocery stores, restaurants and even a prison. But people moved out seeking jobs in the cities.
Eiler hit the headlines when people read about her on the internet. They visit her for the curiosity, food and a pint of Budweiser.
She serves them six days a week. Her lonely life now is separated between just three buildings: her home, the tavern, and Rudy’s Library, a small building with 5,000 books.
She is an embodiment for simple (single) living as doesn’t even own a smartphone. All communication happen through a fixed landline phone.
Seeing her steely determination, Prudential Financial once filmed a commercial with Eiler and titled it suitably as the ‘Quintessential Independent Woman’
