Secondly, I would like to send my sincere heartfelt appreciation to each and everyone of you who helped to keep our state functioning and moving in a positive direction. As the journey of Masons- comes with is fair share of challenges, that fact that we took this journey together (Brothers and Sisters) made it all the more worthwhile. 

As we go through this period of transition – let us remember to greet each other with love and a smile; have a conversation with someone you have not seen or spoken to in a while, and above all else – remember to give and share that Brotherly and Sister love.
