Greetings Brethren:

I hope you are all, enjoying our mild winter weather. You might say, what winter?

 

In my message from last month, I asked you to come to the meeting and bring a friend with you. Now, I am asking you to bring yourself to our next meeting on February 15th and enjoy the company of your brethren along with the special dinner that our Past Master, Wor. Larry VanLeer, is planning for us.

I look forward to seeing all of you on the 15th.

 

Fraternally,

Wor. Stanley Marshall, Master
