Just a little about myself
I am a veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces. The lessons I learned will stick with me for life. The brotherhood instilled in me through the military traveled with me and made my brotherhood in masonry that much stonger. I am also currently a student majoring in philosophy. The reason I decided to become a prince hall mason was because of my uncle. He was a mason and a very proud mason at that. He introduced me to this fraternity and I knew then that this was something I wanted to be a part of

Title: Secretary and past master
Degree: 7th Degree
I am a veteran of the U.S. armed forces and a proud Prince Hall free and accepted mason of 43 years now. I have served as past master of harmony lodge #40 in Cape Girardeau Mo. I now hold the seat of secretary. The reason I joined was because of my father. I have not known a better man. He was a mason and I wanted to be just like him. Strong, kind, honest and admired by all he came in contact with. I have had the honor of seeing many men raised in masonry. We at harmony lodge are proud of our rich and long history or making good men even better men and carrying this tradition on to our youth. Being a mason has openened many doors for me but what makes me most proud is the many doors I have been blessed to open for others.

Title: Treasurer (Royal Arch Mason)
Degree: 7th
My name is Ross Conner
I was raised into masonry June 3rd 1973. That makes me a very proud Royal Arch Mason. The reason I decided to become a mason was because I liked the way they carried themselves. I can remember as a child seeing these very strong looking men dressed in black suits. They were friendly yet you could tell they had this fierce deimeiner to them. When things in my community required attention it was these men I always saw that stepped up to the plate and faced any challenge or need of the community. I knew then that whatever they possesed I wanted it. I have enjoyed being a mason. I look forward to the work that we do to make ourselves better men. I can honestly say that becoming a prince hall free and accepted mason was one of the best decions I have ever made.
