20th August 2017 our Brother became 100 year young, Jack joined our lodge in January 1983 having been a freemason since 1944 where he was initiated into Vespassian Lodge No. 4222 of Southampton.
We have recognised Jacks dedication by making him an Honorary member of our lodge. A birthday card signed by many from the lodge and fiends of Jack was given to the birthday boy along with a presentation watch. A smashing cake of a ship was made for Jack to celebrate his most distinguished career in the shipping world.
For many years Jack was our Almoner – a job he done with great diligents and compassion. Jack was presented with a Certificate to celebrate his 70 years in Masonry in 2014 by The R.W. Provincial Grand Master, John Michael Webb at our 130th anniversary year meeting.
