Cards at the Maidstone Drop In Centre were cancelled April 28 so members could attend the funeral of long-time member Jessie Buckley, who passed away April 23. The funeral service was at St. Andrew's Anglican Church and members served lunch at the seniors' centre.
April 29 a number of seniors attended the funeral of dedicated seniors' club member Ray Hartman. The funeral was held at the Legion Hall. Ray was the maintenance man at the centre for a number of years. He will be missed, not just for the work he, did but for the quiet, willing way he looked after the smooth running of our centre.
Bingo was played April 30 with Joan Smith and Bev Stewart doing the calling. The loonie pot was won by Molly Den Ouen. Lunch was served by Denise Newton.
