I write with deepest sorrow, following the loss of our dear brother departed, W. Bro. Stanley Crawford of Caledonia Lodge No. 68. He was well known to most of us, especially in other orders, as his ritual and Northern Irish accent were indeed memorable. His ritual was excellent and an example to us all, and the easy way in which he spoke made him an example to be emulated. We will all remember the good times enjoyed with him as head of the various Lodges.
He was more than a brother to most of us – he was a friend, who will be greatly missed. His wife Kath died earlier this year and he leaves behind his son Dean. Our thoughts are with him at this time of sorrow.
