  • KMC Magazine Easter 2021
    It seems to have been a long winter and yet that said, looking back now, it seems to have gone quite quickly. Of course, the speed at which time passes will all depend on what each of us has been able to do in the last 3 months. In the Lockdown Stories and KMC Family News, a couple of people decided to really challenge themselves and came out winners. Others have immersed themselves in their individual interests both to take their minds off what has been happening and keep boredom at bay. I wish I could say I have been as productive as Sheila & John Mynard but I can’t, so I won’t! The sad passing of Helen Baker is reflected in this issue and I hope you will find the various items in memory of Helen, including one written by Helen herself, both interesting, informative and appropriate. The article on Supporting Charities is worthy of note. Many charities have suffered a decline in donations throughout the pandemic for obvious reasons. Lynda Shore brings to our attention several charities which she would like us to remember at this time including Christian Aid. Easter is a time to celebrate the promise of eternal life through Christ’s death and resurrection with Easter Day coming as a reminder of renewal and life restored. Spring started on 20 March this year with Easter following close on its heels so making the feeling of renewal especially strong. This sense of rebirth will be felt even more keenly, I would suggest, because we will hopefully soon be slowly emerging from lockdown.
