Frank is left in the middle.. Dear Mrs. Neville,
Thank You the opportunity to say a word about Frankie for your "Memorial Album".
It was my good fortune to meet Brother Frank Ybanez in March of 2006. He came to Holyrood Lodge No. 257 to continue his journey into Freemasonry. It was our pleasure to assist by giving him instruction into the FellowCraft Degree and then "Raising" him to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason in our Lodge.
From our very first meeting we found Brother Ybanez to be a bright young man who was eager to learn the "work" of our Fraturnity. I had the good furtune to work with him in earning his "proficiency" in the Fellow Craft Degree and progressing on to being a Thirty=second Degree Scothish Rite Mason.
He was appointed to the office of Chaplin in Holyrood Lodge for the year 2007 but left shortly after that appointment because of his work location and schedule.
He is well regarded by all of his Lodge Brothers and was ever-ready to lend a hand of Brotherly Love and Fellowship to all. We miss him when he moved away and will continue to miss him but we are comforted to know that he is now at Peace with the Grand Architect of the Universe in that Celestial Lodge on High, Eternal in Heavens.
Sincerely and Fraternally,
James M. Bryant, Secretary
