Upon my exit, I want to express my special thanks to:
- Bobbie Enloe for providing such a good example in 2008.
- Jerry Schrankler for being our Counselor this past year and especially for holding my hand all year to see that this ignorant WM performed at least passably.
- Scott Kreis for putting on so many good, educational programs.
- Phil Kifer for feeding us so well, the grub was superb!
- LeRoy Kifer for the unbelievable amount of time you dedicate to the Lodge year-in and year-out.
- Jeff Keller for your ability to anything and everything, the Cabinets are fantastic!
- Rich Petak for your dedicated work around the lodge; the locks, the AED, the keyboard, sound system, and so much more!
- Burt, Gordon, Jeff, Jerry, Rich and the rest of the Sheephead Gang for the card lessons and for shamelessly taking my money all year.
- Gib and George and the rest for your ever presence, both physically and spiritually.
- All the rest of my FdL Lodge 26 Brothers, for whom I have too little room here to mention individually, I can feel your kind thoughts and prayers every time I enter Lodge.
- And finally, Scott Bond for your Masonic passion and drive. It’s been an honor keeping that Eastern Seat warm for you. Next year is going to be an ‘Excellent Adventure’.
