Donation Surprises Lodge

At last evening's regular assembly, Right Worshipful Brother Robert O. Sanford announced an anonymous donation to Boggs Lodge. RWB Sanford shared:

This brother has a great respect for the Lodge, a great respect for what the brothers have accomplished and continue to accomplish. He asked that this donation remain in strict confidence, and I'm going to honor that. This donation is made in honor of and on behalf of our late Right Worshipful Brother Chuck Roby, Past District Deputy Grand Master, our current District Deputy, Right Worshipful Brother J. Keith Bell, and, I'm honored to say, myself. The donor wished to express his appreciation for what these Past District Deputies and other Past Masters have done for our lodge, and I'm proud to present on behalf of this donor a complete set of Officer's Jewels and Collars. - Right Worshipful Brother Sanford

Worshipful Brother Lance Hill reported that he and the officers had discussed pooling their resources to purchase a set of collars and jewels for the Lodge, but that the project had been put off because of the cost of each collar and jewel. He expressed his gratitude on behalf of the officers and Lodge, noting that the donation was significant in monetary value.

The Officers will proudly wear their new jewels in honor of the Lodge and the named tributes this Saturday morning at Annual Inspection.
