Brothers,

I want to thank you for electing me to be your Deputy Grand Master for the ensuing year. It is my promise to you that I will continue to work diligently for our Fraternity and in concert with our Grand Master. I was pleased to see so many of you at our Annual Grand Communication, and look forward to visiting with you again throughout the year.

Stay healthy, wealthy, and wise and may the Great Architect of the Universe continue to bless us and watch over us all.

Sincerely and Fraternally,

R∴W∴ Donald W. Cowart

Deputy Grand Master
