Viki, we are very sorry for the loss of David, I'm sure he will be welcomed with arms open , and harps tuned, by those who have gone before him. Apparently god has another calling for him, and to the others, we held so dear, and lost over the last few years. I have a feeling they are about to open a new lodge, the greatest lodge of all, with the Lord as His Supreme Govenor. May God be with you now,and always. R.I.P. David A.Courtney
