A large gathering of brethren were present before the December 8 Stated Communication as Brother Past Master Raymond Housley was presented with his 60-year Masonic Service award from Grand Inspector Brother Melvin Mason, PM. We were glad that Brother Ray's wife, daughter, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were able to join him for this presentation.
After the Lodge was called to order, Brothers Christopher Laurence Childers, Christopher John Groves, and Donald Eugene Bittinger demonstrated their proficiency in the Master Mason catecism under the leadership of Brother Jon May.
Past Masters Robert Case, Addison Caracciolo, Quincy Ewing III, Edward Johnson, Glen Sunderland, and affiliated Past Master W. Frank Soper, Jr. shared recollections of their time in the East.
The following officers were elected for 2012: William Renner, Worshipful Master; Robert Reid, Senior Warden; Lee Brandenburg, Junior Warden; Kenneth Mason, Secretary; and John Wenzel, Treasurer. Paul Slayton will be appointed to serve as Assistant Secretary; Romain Tweedy, Senior Deacon; Christopher Childers, Junior Deacon; Jon May, Senior Steward; Edward Johnson, Tyler; Addison Caracciolo, Chaplain; Glen Sunderland, Marshall.
