To My Masonic Brothers,
Your kindness, cards, and prayers when I lost my dear wife Cathy, have made life more bearable.
Cathy and I would have been married 50 years next year, and it is not the same without her.
Your generosity and encouragement help to keep me going each day.
Thank you,
Mark Gilstrap, Meyerhardt 314

It is with a sad heart, that I tell you Cathy Gilstrap lost her battle with cancer.
With shelter in place restrictions going into effect, the Chapter is limited in what we can do to support the Gilstrap family.
We can provide food, and Betsy will be coordinator.
