GARSTON |
|
The Brethren of the Garston Mark Lodges lead the Wreath Laying Ceremony of Remembrance at the | |
Cenotaph in Garston. They were supported by Craft Masons of the Garston Group of Lodges and Chapters. | |
Many members of the general public who now regularly attend this ceremony were also present. | |
Two minutes silence was observed at 11.00 followed by a recitation given by W. Bro. Colin Svenson, | |
after which the West Lancs Mark wreath was laid by V.W. Bro Eric Hughes. | |
They are shown below accompanied by W.Bro. Jack Stewart. | |
Afterwards (now an established tradition) the Masons, wives and families repaired to Garston Masonic Hall | |
for lunch. | |
The sum of £ 250.00 was realised at the lunch which included a waver of fees by our well known singing | |
entertainer Miss Sarah Lowe. It was agreed that this sum be donated to the Royal Signals Benevolent | |
Fund. The Rt. W. Provincial Grand Master, Bro. Peter Connolly has intimated that the Province will add to | |
this. | |
