A Message From The State President

Another month has passed and we are continuing to live a different world than what we are use to. I hope everyone is doing well and abiding by the rules set up by our elected State officials.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the De Santis family for the loss of Past State and National President Frank. I will always remember the first time I met Frank at the 2003 convention. He will be missed by all of us for his knowledge and his kind smile. He will now look over all of us in The Grand lodge above!

We will be sending out the Western Foundation donation forms you would normally receive at convention and be able to donate to our charities. Even though a lot of lodges have had to cancel their fund raising events, we still want to have the ability to still donate to our scholarships, medical charities, and our civic funds. These donations can be mailed to the Grand Lodge office and you will receive a letter for your tax purposes.

We have a lot of events we have missed being together, birthdays, anniversaries, lodge dinners, lodge anniversary parties, and our convention, where we able to see everyone from our filial lodges. We have thou been able to get closer to family, which is one of our principles of our order, Fraternity! So please continue to check in on all of our family and as I mentioned last month let’s all continue to listen to our elected government officials. Please everyone stay safe and if you need anything reach out to your fellow members.

I am looking forward to the time when we can meet together as a group (family) once again. So let’s continue to work together for the good of the order. My phone is always on; please feel free to reach out with any questions anytime.

Happy Father’s day to all the fathers.

We will beat this Together!!! Stay safe!

Yours Fraternally
