Who are the Masons?

Masons in Olympia, Tumwater and Lacey congregate at Harmony Lodge #18, the friendliest Lodge in Thurston County, WA. Our Lodge includes a broad cross-section of the community and we welcome men over the age of 18 who want to improve themselves by associating with like-minded peers. Our membership is distributed fairly evenly across age groups and by profession, although because of the proximity to Fort Lewis (JBLM), many of our members are active duty military or veterans.

The Masonic Fraternity is the oldest Fraternity in the world. The Masonic Family includes Masons as well as organizations for their ladies, couples, and youth.

The Masonic Family provides more than $2 million a day to charitable activities such as hospitals, youth scholarship, and those less fortunate than we.

To inquire about Masonry, contact our Secretary.

Brother Howard Norris has passed on

From Secretary WB Rich Lathrope:

Brethren,

I am sad to report to you that we have lost another member, Brother Howard Norris.

I received a letter from the executor of his estate saying that he died early in August. He was born 9/22/1926 which means he was 82. He was raised as a Master Mason on 5/25/1962. He had terminal lung cancer and his wife pre-deceased him.

I did chat with him on the phone late last year but I really do not know him well.

If you have memories you would like to share about Bro. Howard, please contact either WB Rich or Webmaster VWB Brian Morgan.
