A Historical Celebration!

On August 19, 2021, the Brethren of Pomeroy-Racine Lodge #164, in the Magnificent 12th District celebrated a very special and historical occasion during the regularly stated meeting. In attendance that evening was Brother Alfred E. Crow. On August 12th, Brother Crow celebrated his 104th birthday. On this day, Brother Crow also received his 65-year pin as a Good and Upright Mason. Prior to opening our Lodge in Master Mason Degree, those in attendance wished Brother Crow a Happy Birthday and celebrated with birthday cake.

To assist in this celebration, RW Junior Grand Warden Paul Weglage of the Ohio Grand Lodge was in attendance. Our Lodge was called from Labor to Refreshments, at which time family joined us in the reading of the certificate and the receiving of the 65-year pin.

A letter written by Brother Crow to the Lodge was read aloud. The following is quoted from his letter:

“I want to thank the members for their celebration of my 65th anniversary as a member……. I am very proud to be a member of an organization which promotes the policies of God and the articles of moral conscience for its guidance……. Following the Christian belief results in the promise of everlasting life after death. It also provides a moral compass for every individual and a reward.”

WM John Epple said, "What an honor and a privilege it was to be a part of this historical celebration."
