October 27th - Masonic Tour of Buffalo - Return to Forest Lawn Cemetery





What an amazing turn out, even in the rain and the cold. We had fifteen Brothers, visitors and our ladies at the tour. This was our second trip back to Forest Lawn and I feel out most successful. Bro. Chapin and I covered a wide range of Masonic history that took place in Erie County. Special thanks need to be given to Right Worshipful Peter Filim, a docent of Forest Lawn, in helping with the tour. He is a wonderful guide and helped us tell the story of Masonry in Forest Lawn. We should also thank Forest Lawn Cemetery for allowing us to visit and use this historic site to educate  the public about the rich masonic history found in Erie County and Buffalo New York. I very much hope to return in the future. Our plan for next year is to extend the tour back to Downtown Buffalo and show the Masonic sites that once stood and still stand in our amazing city. Check out the website as we have many pictures from the event and even a few videos.
