Provincial Grand Lodge of East Anglia

Mark Master Masons
Royal Ark Mariners

Ernest Hines Mark had a bumper attendance at their Installation meeting, with numbers swelled not only by the PGM, Deputy PGM and Assistant PGM, but escorting Active Provincial Grand Officers plus many Grand Officers giving further support.

Following the Installation of David Ball as Worshipful Master and the usual lodge business, the PGM made a special presentation to Robin Watkeys, who received his certificate to celebrate sixty years since his Advancement.

WM David Ball, PGM, Robin Watkeys

Robin started his Mark Masonry in his native Wales, moving to Norfolk with work and joining Walpole Mark in 2006. Subsequently joining Yare Valley and now Ernest Hines Mark, Robin and PGM David Boswell chatted in open lodge for a few minutes about the last 60 years, before presenting Robin with the certificate, which was read aloud by Provincial Secretary Mike Staff.

If that wasn’t enough, DPGM Gary Allen presented four recent Ernest Hines Advancees with their Grand Lodge Certificates, namely Paul Nicholls, Craig Battison, Mike McGillivray and Jason Delf.
