Brother Anthony C. Markette, PM, Secretary
We will miss that smile that was brighter than all the lights in Ionic hall.
The day you were called by our Grand Architect of the universe, a very big piece of all our hearts went with you.
Several of the members expressed their memories and experiences relating to Tony and what he had meant to us.
They offered appreciative commentary regarding all of his selfless dedication to the Craft and his commitment to the Lodge.
The Worshipful Master and other members mentioned how his natural affection for the Lodge was instrumental in its operation and that he would be greatly missed.
From all the members of Fernwood Lodge No. 543
Farewell my Brother.
