Worshipful Brother George William Day

 

Dear Brethren,

It is with sadness that I inform you of the passing to the Grand Lodge above Worshipful Brother and E. Comp. George William Day PPrSGW on 29th of December 2024 aged 87.

George was Initiated on the 11th of October 1984 in Cumberland Lodge L3858, he was installed as Master in 1992, then afterwards serving as Lodge Almoner from 1997 to 2013, as well as holding the office of Lodge Chaplain from 2011 to 2022.

George was Exalted into St John the Baptist Chapter C475 on the 5th of November 1987, he became First Principal in 1997 after which  George then continued to support the Chapter by holding  many important offices until his sad passing.

 George’s first promotion in 1998 was to PPrGStB, in 2004 to PPrGSuptWks, in 2009 to PPrGReg , in 2015 to PPrJGW and finally in 2022 to PPrSGW.

George was also a Past Sovereign of The Lea Chapter RC362 Rose Croix.

George served our Province for 40 years and Royal Arch Chapter 37 years. I was informed that he was an inspiration to everyone in his Lodge and Chapter, always ready to help and support the members and offer advice. His wisdom will be sorely missed by all that knew him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this very sad time.

 

Requiescat in pace

Yours sincerely and fraternally

Mike Fitz-Gerald – Provincial Grand Almoner
