It is with extreme sorrow that I have to report the passing of W:. Luke DeRobrts of our Lodge. He was a great person, never having a bad word to say about anything. Always would welcome you with a smile and handshake. A Past Master of our Lodge, Shriner, and York Rite member. He held a position in our Lodge for over 20 years, held officer positions in the York Rite. Was also an officer in High Twelve before they disbanded. He was Amaranth, and I believe Eastern Star. Worked in the past with DeMolay and I believe it was Jobs Daughters or Rainbow Girls. He was always willing to lend a hand to anyone and any group that needed it.
He will truly be missed, and will be a great asset to the Lodge above.
** update **
There will be a Masonic service for W:. Luke DeRoberts at 5pm on Saturday April 7th, 2012 at Pearl of the West Masonic Lodge #146. There will not be a wake or funeral as W:. DeRoberts will be cremated by the Neptune Society. At the request of the family the hall will be used afterwards for friends and family to socialize and have refreshments. I would encourage everyone who can attend to please do so.
