When your in the service of others, your have your thoughts and hands immersed in working for others. It may be decisions considered for the good of the craft, it may be cards for pathways residents, visits to lodges, research on projects, calling brothers on specific issues, presenting membership awards, conducting meetings, ceremony for dedication, memorizing a ritual part, appointing committee members, planning for events, supporting youth, giving counsel.
Then comes along the Secretary of a Lodge and says, Grand Master, we would like to present you with an Honorary Membership to our Lodge. And then explains that it is not a common occurrence in the Lodge to hand them out, but they were appreciative of my efforts. Thank you WB Loveless for taking time to be in Alma the same time I was, and bestowing this singular honor.
