Fall has final settled in to St. Louis and was enjoyed by many neighbors at the Skinker DeBaliviere Taste on Friday evening, October 11th at the Moonrise Hotel.
It was a lovely evening with food donated from many local restaurants including; Prime 55, Krab Kingz, Mission Taco Joint, Seoul Taco, Zza Pizza & Salad, Snarf’s, Salt N Smoke, Insomnia Cookies, Sugar Momma’s, Just Chicken, Fork & Stix, Three Kings Public House, and Guerrilla Street Food.
It was a gorgeous evening with a rooftop view of our beautiful neighborhood and the perfect opportunity to catch up with neighbors, new and old. Moving on in our news we want to offer a very special congratulations to St. Louis Circuit Judge Michael Noble who was recently honored with the 2019 Judicial Excellence Award – Circuit at a special ceremony for his dedication to the effective administration of justice in Missouri. “It is a privilege to recognize individuals who serve diligently and with integrity, lead by example and provide the citizens of Missouri with the quality of justice they demand and deserve,” Missouri Chief Justice George W. Draper III said before presenting his 2019 chief justice awards, including judicial excellence awards. Noble’s entire judicial career has been in the 22nd Judicial Circuit (St. Louis city).
He was appointed a drug court commissioner in October 2007; was appointed an associate circuit judge in March 2013; and has served as a circuit judge since November 2015. Voters retained him in that office during the November 2018 general election. Well done Judge Noble!
We lost a few long time neighbors recently. Miles Haliburton who lived in the 5800 block of DeGiverville since 1967 passed away on August 21, 2019.
He was almost 91 years old.
He was a faithful member of Block Unit 1035 and was helpful in taking care of the car circle at Laurel and Waterman and the community garden across from Lucier Park. Our sympathies to his family and neighbors.
Following a year long battle with Gioblastoma, Jon Dahl, of the 6100 block of McPherson passed away on Wednesday, September 25th.
He is survived by his wife of 22 years, Ellen Leathers and his sons Michael (Megan) and Matt, and step children James and Anne Leathers. Always one to greet you with a smile a hug, and an offer to help you with whatever project you may be working on or contemplating, Jon will be missed.
His life was celebrated at St. Roch Church on October 5th and at a reception at his home. Mrs. Rosie Ball of the 6000 block of McPherson passed away on Wednesday, October 9th at the age of 92. Mrs. Ball lived for decades in her home on McPherson raising her children and hosting family events for her extended family.
She could often be seen enjoying the view from her front porch and keeping an eye on happenings in the neighborhood. Our condolences go out to her large family. Mrs. Ball’s home going service and celebration was at Olivet Missionary Baptist Church on October 18th.
She will be missed. Do you have news to share?
