It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of three of our lodge members this last March, within two weeks of each other.

*Doug Nelson 3/1/20 and *David Hillis, both charter members since our lodge began in July of 1996. Doug along with his wife Rachel have been very dedicated members. Doug helped with most of our functions especially the crab feeds and has been our Treasurer for these last 10 years. David (Dave) Hillis helped with our crab feeds in earlier years and was always ready to help with bartending and whatever else was needed.

*Robert (Bob) Matranga passed away on 3/15/20 at the age of 80. Bob has been with our lodge these last 7 years alongside with his wife Barbara. Both active from the beginning, Bob served as our Sentinel (Sargent of Arms) regularly attending board meetings and helping out on many occasions.

Our deepest condolences to all their families!! They will all be truly missed by our lodge.

Buona Festa della Mamma (Happy Mother’s Day) to all our wonderful Mother’s!!

God Bless and Thank you for all those that have served!! Buon Giorno del Monumento (Happy Memorial Day)

Doug Bob David
