Bro Matthew Michael Gregory - Raised To Sublime Degree of Master Mason By M.W. Bro. Myron L. Ware, Grand Master, Grand Lodge of Ms, at Tupelo Masonic Lodge No. 318 F&AM - PHOTOS

It is with great pride that we, the brethren of Tupelo Masonic Lodge No. 318 F&AM, announce that Bro Matthew Michael Gregory /G\, was initiated as an Entered Apprentice, passed to the degree of Fellow Craft, and raised to the sublime degree of Master Mason on 23 March 2013, under special dispensation and by the order of M.W. Bro. Myron L. Ware, Grand Master of Masons in Mississippi, MS Grand Lodge, Free & Accepted Masonry. Brother Gregory has now been listed on our Wall of Honor!

Although Bro Gregory had many special guest in lodge with him Saturday, we are sure that none were more special than his Grandfather, Bro Robert Oneal McNeece.

We would like to thank The Grand Lodge of Mississippi, The Mississippi Masonic Confederate Degree Team, The Mississippi Masonic Mountain Men Degree Team, and those who worked tirelessly to put this event together, promote, and prepare our lodge to host it. Some of those brethren are Bro Ray Stanford, Bro Derik Rushing, Bro Isaiah Edger, Bro John Davidson, Bro Wheeler Pulliam, Bro James O. Roberts, Bro PD Newman, Bro Austin Long, Bro Robert Wilson and Bro Arnie Cade. If any were omitted, please accept our apology. If you will submit your name to the lodge, this will be amended.

To all the countless visiting brethren from several states and to members of Tupelo 318 that attended and took part in, this piece of Mississippi Masonic History, we offer our grattitude and we are truly humbled for your support.

Our newly raised brother is at this present time deploying. Bro Gregory is on his way to bring honor to the fraternity, uphold the legacy of the craft, and defend our freedom in his service to our nation. Bro Gregory also has another title, that of United States Marine. As he boarded that aircraft today, he left behind a wife, mother, father, countless other family members, and hundreds of thousands of brethren in which his bond can never be broken...

I encourage all who may gaze upon this post, pause at this time, in a moment of silence, and offer a prayer for PFC Matthew Michael Gregory, USMC, and his family. Matt, we salute you our brother and look forward to your safe return so that we might once again have the honor of sitting along side you in lodge. God Speed our brother, God Speed!
