W. Bro. Stanley Gregson P. Prov. Grand Senior Warden

 
W Bro Stanley Gregson was unable to attend Provincial Lodge earlier this month (May 2012) to receive his promotion to P.Prov.G.S.W. due to his poor health (well at 90 you can be excused!!).
 
With the Rt. W. Provincial Masters consent W. Bro. Ken Alker (special representative) was delighted on Sunday following the Provincial Grand Lodge meeting, to present the letter of appointment to Stanley on his behalf.

With Ken, at the presentation of the certificate, was Stanley's long time friend and proposer into Mark Masonry, Dennis Houghton. They also served on the bench together as JP's, so Ken had to be on his best behaviour!

Stanley was initiated into Masnes Lodge 5967 (now incorporated into Orrell Lodge) in 1970 and was advanced into Rose & Thistle Mark Lodge the following year. He was master of the lodge in 1980 and served as DC for 11 years and more recently was Chaplin.
