Francis Daughty for receiving his 55 year Masonic pin. Many thanks to WB Hollander, Bro. Brooks, Bro. Valker, Bro. Conway, and Bro. Ruark for scanning the photos of our PMs. I would also like to extend my special appreciation to RWB Harrison for a wonderful job on rearranging the photos of Herndon PMs in our social hall. Kudos to our newest FCs receiving their degrees and our cast for putting on a great conferral!
