IN MEMORIAM
Whilst we all know of individuals and families affected by COVID, many people are wondering how the Craft as a whole is faring.
We are aware that member deaths are up 13.34% on this time last year and know of 199 Brethren who have been called to the Grand Lodge Above by this terrible disease.
Rest eternal grant unto them, and let light perpetual shine upon them.
