Brothers,
Our hearts and prayers go out to our Past Master Richard DiNardo in his time of loss.
It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I report that Worshipful Brother Frank DiNardo peacefully laid down his working tools for the last time yesterday in New Milford, CT.
Worshipful Brother Frank DiNardo was a 50-year Mason, he was raised in 1964 in Pelham Lodge no. 712 in City Island, NY, serving as its Master for 1973, and a loved brother of Saint Alban’s #38
A memorial service is planned for the Spring. Worshipful Brother Richard DiNardo expresses thank you all for the warm welcome & fellowship extended to his Dad by St. Alban’s over the years.
Fraternally yours,
WM John Kelley
