Remembrance Prayer for Brother Lewis E. Woodward Date: 09 February 2010 Let us pray. Supreme Grand Master, author of all good and giver of all mercy. Pour down Thy blessings upon the three daughters (Leslie Neubauer, Wanda Vanier and Diane Guertler) of our long-time Masonic Brother and combat veteran, Captain Lewis E. Woodward, who recently joined you in the Celestial Lodge above. He will be missed by all in the Craft. Strengthen our solemn engagements with the ties of sincere affection! May the present instance of mortality remind us of our approaching fate, and draw our attention toward Thee, the only refuge in time of need that, when the awful moment shall arrive that we are about to quit this transitory scene, the enlivening prospect of Thy mercy may dispel the gloom of death. After our departure hence in peace, and in Thy favor, may we be received into Thine everlasting kingdom, to enjoy, in union with the souls of our departed Masonic brethren, the just reward of a pious and virtuous life. So mote it be. By: Masonic Chaplain Charles Reade Adelphoi Lodge #33 in Riverside, RI

So very sorry! Your dad was such a delightful gentleman with a sense of humor that was such fun. We all had such great times together - trips down south to play golf and up to Jackson, to that beautiful spot, to ski and of course all those "happy hours" at the Country Club. Lots of wonderful memories. Deepest sympathy to you all. Affectionately, Cathie
