Although not a regular attendee at Jersey Lodge of MMM No. 257 meetings due to health problems, W.Bro. Neil Ratcliffe, P.G.Srd>B. is a committed supporter of the Mark Benevolent Fund and has qualified as a Vice Patron.
He was presented with his new Honorific at his home by W.Bro. Hugh Ranscombe, A.G.D.C., Prov.G.Almoner much to his surprise and that of his wife Sheila.
Being a Mark Master Mason of forty-one years standing pales in comparison with the fact that they will be celebrating their diamond wedding anniversary next month (December) and are thus looking forward to double festivities with their family, all the way down to great grandchildren.
