Dulcimers sound at Fountain Villa

On Monday afternoon, sweet old-time melodies filed the dining hall at Fountain Villa as the Christian Strings strummed their mountain dulcimers and plucked the strings of a viola.

Group members Carol Paddock, Dee Kieffaber, Regina Broyles, Virginia Jackson, Carolyn McGee and Amanda Rewa began performing together about four years ago at Wall Street Christian Church in rural Mound City. The women live in the Blue Mound and Mound City area.

The group was in Iola to perform for Paddock’s stepmother, Marjorie McLaughlin, who is a resident at Fountain Villa.
