In Memoriam Nobles, it is with a heavy heart that I share the passing of our High Priest & Prophet, Noble Tom Lundy P.T.T.G.L.A., who left us on March 23, 2026. Our deepest sympathies and prayers are with his Lady Janice and their family during this difficult time. Stated Meeting and Divan Updates On April 8th, we held a Stated Meeting where the sale of our headquarters at 124 Queens Plate Drive was presented to the Nobility. Over 100 Nobles attended, and the motion to proceed with the sale was unanimously approved. Following this, an election was conducted to fill the vacancy on the Divan. Noble Randy Ling and Noble Steve Christie were each elected to advance one position. Additionally, Noble Herb Koch was elected as Oriental Guide. We extend a warm welcome to Noble Herb and his Lady Connie, and we look forward to working with them on the Divan. Potentate’s Ball Recap On April 18th, we celebrated the Rameses Potentate’s Ball. Lady Barb and I were truly amazed—what a fantastic evening! With over 200 Nobles, Ladies, and friends in attendance, the event was an outstanding success. We owe a special thank you to Chief Rabban Mike Webb and Lady Leslie for organizing such a memorable weekend. THANK YOU! Looking Ahead and Your Feedback As we move forward with the sale of our headquarters, many of you have shared your suggestions about our next steps. Your input is valued and appreciated. However, I would like to remind everyone that these suggestions should be directed to the Strategic Planning Committee, which was established to ensure full transparency to the Nobility regarding our future direction. Spring Events and Closing Thoughts With April nearly behind us, we can finally say goodbye to old man winter and all his snow. Warmer weather is on the way, and soon we will enjoy outdoor events such as BBQs, golf, and parades. Lady Barb and I look forward to seeing many of you at these gatherings. In the meantime, take care and God bless!
