Grand Ledge Independent

Resolutions of Respect

In memory of Brother Elroy C. McCCrumb, who departed this life August 6, 1920.

Once again a Brother Mason, having completed the designs written for him on life’s trestle board, has passed through the portals of Eternity and the Grand Lodge of the New Jerusalem and hath received, as his reward, the whitestone with the new name written thereon.

And Whereas, The all-wise and merciful Master of the universe has called from labor to refreshments our beloved and respected brother, and he, having been a true and faithful member of our beloved order, therefore be it

Resolved, That Grand Ledge Lodge No. 179, F. & A. M., of Grand Ledge, Mich., in testimony of her loss, be draped in mourning for thirty days, and that we tender to the family of our deceased brother our sincere condolance in their deep affliction, and that a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family.

J. Mason Soper,

L. Dunkin,

Elmer Schoff,

Committee.
