Santa comes to Matlock

Saturday, December 5th was an exciting day at the Matlock Rec Centre when Mr. & Mrs. Claus appeared with two of their elves to reward good Donnottar children with some pre-Christmas treats and hopes for delivery of much-wanted gifts on Christmas Eve.

Local dignitaries were on hand to help serve up a terrific pancake and sausage breakfast. A craft table was available to amuse the kids and a draw was made for a handmade gingerbread house. Large and small children alike were entertained by Santa's antics! Fun was had by all!

Matlock loses a wonderfully warm resident

It is with sadness that we say goodbye to Marjorie (Marj, Margie) Meisner, who passed away suddenly in her home on Monday, March 27, 2017. Marjorie will be missed by husband Ron, and everyone who knew her. She always had a smile for everyone she encountered. Marjorie (on the right) playing the ukulele. Marjorie is best known for her musical talents. She loved to sing, and played the guitar, the tin whistle, and the ukulele--probably others, as Marjorie's life was greatly enhanced by her musical connections.

Marjorie loved to gather with friends and was a member of the informal music group that meets at the Matlock Rec Club. Do give Ron Meisner a hug when you see him.
