Worshipful Master's Message for January, 2003

Brethren,

           First, there are no words to describe my THANKS to Brother Ralph H. Slider, Sr.,P.M., for installing me as Worshipful Master. I would truly like to thank the other Past Masters who participated in the ceremony. It is truly a dream come true. The only person missing was my father-in-law, Tom Layland, who wished me well from my first degree. I am sure he is looking down on me and smiling.

            I would like to thank my newly elected officers and appointed line officers. I expect us to be an unbeatable team in 2003.

            The first stated meeting of the year, January 16, 2003, will bring to us a visit from Mike McNear. He is a representative for Fisher Clinical Packaging, a company which is heavily involved in clinical drug studies.
