Pilgrimage Day 2013 was a tremendous success, the Residents and Staff appreciate the efforts of all those who participated. We are in awe of the many ways in which Lady Bonnie Aladro's Masonic Home Project has benefited the Residents and overall beauty of the Home. We appreciate all the dedication that she and the Grand Master put into this effort and your generous donations. The Residents have always enjoyed spending time on their front porch, but even more so now! Lady Bonnie Aladros Project has brought Residents outside to appreciate the fresh air, sunshine, and good conversation. Pilgrimage Day at the The Masonic Home of Florida is always a special day with the unveiling of the First Ladys Project, a time to see old friends and make new friends, great food, a car show, live entertainment and much more. It also affords us an opportunity to sit and talk to The Masonic Home residents and staff. The 2014 Pilgrimage Day will be no different. When the dates are announced, make plans to attend, sit and talk with the residents and staff and you will learn and see why The Masonic Home of Florida is truly a special place and needs our continued support. For this issue, Thanks goes out to the photographers who captured the events during this years Pilgrimage Day.

2012-2013 Grand Master of Masons of Florida Most Worshipful J. L. (George) Aladro and Lady Bonnie Aladro
retirement: two big myths, a few facts and "my plan;" positive thinking, values and leadership; and not-sofinal final thoughts. Much of his writing centers on his involvement with the Masons. R.W. George traces his first involvement with Masonry in 1981 to his appointment as W. Grand Orator. "Being a Mason means so very much to me. I have made many lifelong friends, and retirement means adding to this growing list. Being a Mason assures an active retirement not only for me, but for my wife Harriet as well. The Masons make up a family oriented fraternity, and we eagerly look forward to continued involvement in the activities which are the hallmark of this great organization of which I am honored to be a part," Waas said. The book is available in hard cover, soft cover and electronic version on AuthorHouse's website "click on Bookstore, type in my last name next to 'Research' and scroll down"), as well as from Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com.
