Cliff celebrates 50 years in Freemasonry!

A great time was had by all at the 467th regular meeting of Neleus Lodge No.3062 on Saturday 15th July. Although it was St Swithins Day, the rain certainly did not fall at the Beaconsfield Masonic Centre.

After a crisp opening and the deputation of a number of Provincial Grand Officers including the Deputy Provincial Grand Master, V.W. Bro. Neil Robertson presented V.W. Bro. Clifford Drake with a 50th year Long Service Award Certificate. The DPGM gave a history of Cliff’s Masonic Career and also mentioned some landmark moments in his personal life.

The meeting continued with a 2nd Degree ceremony passing Bro. Dragan Lukic of Eton Lodge No.2458. The Long Working Tools were presented by Bro. Amardeep Malik.

At the Festive Board V.W. Bro. Clifford Drake was presented with an engraved wine glass and a nice bottle of wine that had been matured in whisky barrels as a gift from the members to mark such a special occasion.
