Milestone Pin Presentation

December 2009

On December 7th we had a special Milestone Pin Presentation at Allemania Lodge.

Our First Honoree was our Chaplain and most recent Master W.: Celestino Carlos. He was presented his Masters Certificate from Grand Lodge by DDGM RW.: Larry Wund, followed by his Masters Apron presented by our current Master W.: John Boyen. Last but not least, his Pin was presented by long time Treasurer RW.: Dieter Borbeck Sr.. The Honor is well deserved. Celestino has been a great Master of the Lodge and an inspiration for many Brothers.

Next were our 35 Year Milestone Masons. Horst Kruedelbach was presented his Pin by his Son and Brother Thomas Kruedelbach. Rudolf Lonk Sr. was presented his Pin by his Son and Brother Rudolf Long Jr.. This was a very special moment for the honoree and presenters. For both, the Pins were presented by their own sons who joined Allemania Lodge just a few years ago. Our Last 35 Year Milestone Pin was presented to Brother Henry Young by our Master W.: John Boyen.

25 Year Milestone Pins and Certificates were presented to W.: Willi Berghammer by his old friend and Brother Werner Dietrich.

Peter Keesen, DSA received his Pin by W.: Leo Helpmrecht and Brother Reiner Borbeck received his Pin by his Lodge and real Brother Dieter Borbeck Sr..

You could almost say this was a family event. But it shows very clearly how strong masonry can run in a family, were many generations share a common interest.

Congratulations to all the Honorees.
