Alas Brethren, I regret to inform you of the passing of Worshipful Brother George Ramey. Worshipful Brother Ramey peacefully passed to the Celestial Lodge on May 6th, 2012. He was a pillar of Dover Lodge and an instrumental driver toward ushering us into the 21st Century, He will be sorely missed as our long-time Treasurer, our Past Master, and our Dear Brother.

A Service will be held on Thursday May 10th 2012 at 4:00pm at Sunset Memorial Park (6245 Columbia Rd in North Olmsted), followed by Masonic services at 4:30pm. It is the sincere hope of our Worshipful Master that all Brethren who can make it be in attendance.

Solemn strikes the funeral chime,
Notes of our departing time;
As we journey here below.
Through a pilgrimage of woe!

Mortals, now indulge a tear,
For mortality is here!
See how wide her trophies wave
O’er the slumbers of the grave!

 

Here another guest we bring,
Seraphs of celestial wing,
To our funeral altar come,
Waft this friend and brother home.

Lord of all! Below – above –
Fill our hearts with truth and love;
When dissolves our earthly tie,
Take us to Thy Lodge on high.

Rest your working tools now Worshipful Brother Ramey. We shall carry on your legacy, and we will meet again.
