What a Quarter this has been

Over the past three months, I have shared the sad news of the passing of 19 of our Masonic Brothers and Eastern Star Sisters. In only three months! Another 11 in the three months prior to that.

Each loss reminds us of the bonds we share and the journeys now continued beyond this life. We extend our heartfelt wishes for their onward path, carrying with them the light of fellowship and service.

At the same time, we hold close those among us who are experiencing illness and suffering. May they find strength, comfort, and the care they need.

As a fraternity and family, we must continue to look after one another with compassion and unity. Together, we honour the past, support the present, and safeguard the future.
