This is a tough question to answer! I have only been a Master Mason in fact for eleven or twelve years. But I have been a Master Mason in my heart for much, much longer. When I was a lad, my father (who was a Mason) told me about DeMolay. I jumped at the chance and handed over my petition as soon as I was able. In my year as Master Councillor, however, things went bad. We received a petition, sponsored by several DeMolay brothers, for a fine boy, a great student, a superb athlete. He would be a credit to the Order. But our advisors did not like, well, they did not like the depth of his tan (if you get what I mean). In short, a very few months later I laid down my gavel and walked away, saying to myself that until I could sit in Lodge with all of my brothers, I could not in good conscience sit in Lodge with any of them. This was 1970.

I waited. I waited until 1997 when the MW Grand Lodge F&AM of Alaska (where I lived at the time) announced that they were signing a mutual recognition compact with the MW Grand Lodge of Alaska (PHA)! I submitted my petition, and in June of that year I was raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason. You tell me, brethren: when did I become a Mason?

Nov 28, 1977
