Paul’s advancement marked by a distinguished rare pair
|
|
From Left to Right; Bro. Alwyn Johnson, W. Bro Tony Johnson, R.W. Bro. Peter Connolly, PrGM of the Province of West Lanashire Mark Masons, Bro. Terry Tasker, WM, R. W. Bro David Ashbolt, PrGM of London Province of Mark Masons, Bro. Paul Ashbolt and W. Bro Ian Nairn, APrGM of West Lancashire Mark Masons.
Paul Ashbolt of Starkie Lodge number 1070 was recently advanced into Friendship Mark Lodge number 1549, here in Southport - but this was to be no ordinary advancement.
Paul’s father, who was naturally eager to be present to see his son being advanced, is none other than Right Worshipful Brother David Ashbolt, Provisional Grand Master of the Provincial Grand Lodge of London Mark Master Masons.
For Paul’s father to be in attendance it was only right and proper that our own Provincial Grand Master, Right Worshipful Brother Peter Connolly should accompany him, together with Assistant Provincial Grand Master, Worshipful Brother Ian Nairn.
Another family affair occurred on the night as Worshipful Brother Tony Johnson became a joining member and his father, Brother Alwyn Johnson was advanced at the same ceremony.
Later in the evening, at the festive board the WM, Terry Tasker along with all his officers were worthily commended by both PrGMs on their excellent execution of the advancement ceremony.
So Paul and Alwyn were privileged to be in the unique position within Southport of having two Provisional Grand Masters and one Assistant Provisional Grand Master present at their advancement ceremony. Surely a memory to be cherished for a lifetime.
Bro Paul Hardman
