Brother Emerson Waugh, Worshipful Master, Prince of Wales Lodge #630 (Friend)

Entered April 29, 2018 from Toronto, Ontario

To Norma and Family,
Please accept our deepest sympathies on the passing of our Friend and Brother. Worshipful Brother John Tomlinson was a dear friend, loved by the Brothers of Prince of Wales Lodge #630 as well as to the many others in our Masonic Fraternity.
For me, I will miss his warmth and humour. His smile hid the discomfort he was in and showed his strength of character.
The sorrow we feel at his passing to the Grand Lodge above should give way to the knowledge that John will be waiting to receive all of us with the same warmth and love we shared here.
May God keep and strengthen you and those who share in John’s passing.
Fraternally,
W. Bro. Emerson Waugh
