At the Wallingford Lodge of RAM No. 1162 Meeting on the 6th September 2019 W.Bro. Digby Woods Elevated Bro. Mark Hepplethwaite into the order in his usual calm, dignified caring manner. He was ably assisted by his officers with W.Bro. Hugh Ranscombe filling in admirably at short notice as Senior Warden. W.Bro. Eddie Lennon delivered the explanation of the nine steps as only he can whilst W.Bro. Mike Sanders presented the working tools. At the same meeting the Provincial Secretary presented, for the last time as a member of the Provincial Executive, a Grand Lodge Certificated to Bro. Donald Pether. An excellent evening was rounded off with 23 members sitting down to a lively well presented festive board where the traditional Masonic toasts were honoured. Pictured above are W.Bro. Woods with Bro’s. Mark Hepplethwaite and Donald Pether, the Wardens of the night and the Provincial Secretary.
