I sing in the Washington Festival Chorale and at the time it was under the direction of Matt Boice. Matt would always ask the choir for help close to Easter in singing in the Passion Play held at the Masonic Center by the Valley of Pittsburg Scottish Rite. In 2013, after singing in the Passion Play, we were treated to a dinner. I happened to be sitting between Mr. Boice and Mr. Zimmerman. I casually remarked about the big collection of Masonic material outside in the hallway and how I was intrigued by it. Both brother Boice and brother Zimmerman leaned forward and looked at me and exclaimed " If you want to learn more, join the fraternity." Brother Boice was first to pull out a petition and hence my masonic journey began.
Farewell brother, until we meet again.
