    Our condolences to the Davies family on their losses.
    The picture of Ron in his full Masonic Cryptic regalia was taken in Corinthian Hall at the Grand Lodge of Pennsylvania for his installation as RP Deputy Grand Master while I was MPGM of the Grand Council of PA 2005-2006.
    He was a true Mason. RIP
