Trestleboard: January 2020 Mountain City Lodge No. 67 - Lexington, Virginia From the East Brethren, Membership Recognition Night is scheduled for our next stated meeting. I hope we can have a great crowd as we recognize everyone for their commitment to the Lodge and years of masonic membership. Please review our calendar as we have a lot of upcoming degrees, practices, and events in the coming weeks and months. I would ask everyone to please keep Richard Kaufrman’s family in our prayers and make every effort to attend his funeral service next Monday. We will be conducting a Masonic Funeral per his wishes. His services will be this Monday, February 3rd at 2pm at New Providence Presbyterian Church - 1208 New Providence Rd, Raphine, VA 24472. There will be military honors at the grave and a masonic service in the church along with the funeral. As a reminder, please make sure your contact information is updated with R.W. Lyons for the Lodge Directory. You should have received a copy of the directory, if not please see extra copies on R.W. Lyons desk.
