126th Moolah Shrine Potentate
Illustrious Sir David W. Dieckhaus
Greetings Nobles,
Can you believe it is already the end of the year and we are entering the busy holiday season? I wish everyone a safe and
joyous holiday season with their families. Even though it’s getting close to the end of the year we still have plenty work to
do here at Moolah. We have many upcoming events starting off with the Potentate Holiday Ball on December 5th in Moolah
Ballroom, Brunch with Santa on Dec. 12th, and the Shriner’s Patient Party on Dec. 13, in the Ballroom. Don’t forget the last
Stated meeting of the year on December 16th (ELECTION NIGHT). Please make sure to bring your paid dues card for 2015
so you can get into the ballroom to vote.
What a great year! Moolah’s new administrator has been on the job for a complete year now and has worked very hard
with the staff to make sure they take care of all of our needs. Kudos to all of the staff at Moolah for all you do for the Moolah
Shriners and all of our guests. I am proud and honored to have been able to serve as Moolah’s 126th Potentate. I certainly
could not have been able to do it without the support of the divan and all members of Moolah. Thank you for the opportunity, I hope I served you well. As I step aside I ask that you give Lenny Martin and his divan complete support as they move
forward with keeping Moolah Shrine the best shrine in the system.
Thank You for Being “Seen in 2015”
A Message from First Lady Christine,
David and I are so truly blessed to have each of you for our friends. We have had an outstanding year of friends and fellowship and I don’t know how to say thank you enough. We have never had the opportunity to work with such an unbelievable
group of people. Thank you to each of you for giving time, talents, and loving hearts for us and the shrine. This is truly a year
of memories for us.
Thank you for your support and friendship, and a year we will never forget. I hope to see all of you around the shrine next
year, and years to come.
God Bless!

Chaplain’s Corner
by Karl Erselius
Time to “Winterize”
Soon we all may be humming or singing that old song, “Let It Snow”. Remember the first line? “Oh, the weather outside is frightful…..” Growing up here in St.
Louis, I learned the meaning of a cold and icy winter. Our winters may not be as
bad as some places, but they can get pretty mean. In addition to the “outside”
winter weather, our spiritual lives also can experience “winters”, and we must
winterize for them. When winter comes it is a time of bleak, dark, and dreary
days. We must face the fact that winter can be hard and “trials” are hard. Just
like the season of winter, our spiritual “winters” can leave us discouraged, lonely
and depressed.
Some things can make the cold of “our winters/trials” very intense and should
cause us to winterize and “be on guard”. 1. The Cold Air Culprit of the World.
When we are going through trials and hardships, we sometimes tend to let our
guard down, making it easier for worldly influences to take over in our lives. It
seeps through the cracks around the doors and windows, just like the winter
air. We’ve got to block those cracks. Using God’s Word is the best way to do
this. If we have it in our hearts, it can help stop the “winter air of the world”
from seeping into our lives. Psalm 119:11 tells us “Thy Word have I hid in mine
heart, that I might not sin against thee.” 2. The Icicles of Cold Attitudes. In
winter it’s easy to develop a bad attitude. When we’re in the midst of a trial, we
sometimes automatically go into “icicle attitude mode;” i.e: get cranky, out of
sorts with family, and we complain more. We must remember no one else can
fix our bad attitudes, only WE can do that! It’s not easy adjusting one’s attitude during a “winter” because the “weight” of the ice bears down on us. But
the simplest way to start on adjusting a bad attitude is to take a step back and
remember who God is and who WE ARE NOT. Psalm 46:10 “Be still and
know that I am God.” 3. The Blizzards of Circumstances. Winter can bring
many things; blizzards among them, and they can be devastating. Circumstances in our lives can also be devastating; i.e: mounting bills, sickness/poor
health, or relationships sour, etc. We’re “weighed down” and think we can’t go
on because we can’t see down the road. During these times we need to remember that God DOES see the outcome. Remember Job’s plight? Job23:10 reads
“But He knoweth the way that I take: when He hath tried me, I shall come forth
as gold.” 4. The Jack Frost of Depression. The dark, bleak days of winter are
often depressing, and “trials” certainly are depressing. There’s no easy way out
of depression, but keeping our lives in tune with God can help guard against it.
Regular personal devotions and a time with God each day can go a long way
in dealing with it. Psalm55:17 says “Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I
pray, and cry aloud: and He shall hear my voice.”
We will all have “winters” in our lives, but choosing how we deal and prepare for
them can make all the difference in the world. May God bless each and every
one, during this special season and throughout the year. Peace and Shalom.

These We
Do Not Forget
“Es Selamu Aleikum”
We do not lose the ones we love
They only go before
Where there is everlasting life
Where sorrow is no more....
And there the soul will always live
And peace is everywhere
We do not lose the ones we love
God Takes them in His Care.

Kenneth W. Lerbs
Ronald Paul Krueger, P.P.
Worshipful Brother Ronald Paul Krueger was born October 19, 1940. He was initiated an Entered Apprentice
in Tuscan Lodge #360 on September 4th, 1962. He was passed to the degree of fellow craft on February 12,
1963 and raised to the Sublime Degree of a Master Mason on April 2, 1963.
He served Tuscan Lodge #360 as Worshipful Master in 1991-92. Worshipful Brother Krueger was instrumental
in the formation of Noble Lodge #684. When the Grand Lodge of Missouri granted Noble Lodge their charter
on December 10, 2004, it did so with Worshipful Brother Krueger being its first charter member and its first
Worshipful Master.
He was a champion for the Missouri Children’s Foundation, actively supporting the MOCHIP program both
financially and making his theatre lobbies available for the registration of children.
Ron was an active member in many Masonic and community organizations. He served Moolah Shrine as
Potentate in 1999 and was active in the Chanters Unit, Air Patrol and many other Shrine units. He was a
member of the Royal Order of Jesters. He was a 33rd degree Scottish Rite Mason and a member of the
Royal Order of Christian Knighthood Red Cross of Constantine. Ron was honored to receive the DeMolay
Legion of Honor and the DeMolay Hall Of Fame Award.
Mr. Krueger was President and CEO of Wehrenberg Theatres since 1963. He was Past Chairman and
Emeritus Board Member at the Salvation Army, a member of Ambassadors of Harmony (St. Charles Chapter), Safari Club International, Big Game Hunters, NRA, Missouri Conservation and FBI Citizens Academy
Alumni Association.
Ronald was a graduate of Westminster College and a past member of the school’s Board of Trustees. He
served his community through past board memberships at US Bank and Midwest Bank Center. Ron was Past Chairman and a Life Member of the Advisory
Board of the Salvation Army and was the recent recipient of the Don Dubail Wall of Fame Award for outstanding years of service to the Salvation Army.
Ron served his industry as a member of the Board of Directors of National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO) and as a past board member of the National
Association of Concessionaires. Ronald received the NATO “B.V. Sturdivant Award” for outstanding community and industry service. Ron was a member of
the World President’s Organization. He was listed in both the National and International Who’s Who registers. Most notably Ron helped further the St. Louis
University Family Firm Forum as a member of its advisory board, and the company received the 1998 Mississippi Valley Family Business Award.
Ron enjoyed the outdoors and was a member and past president of the St. Louis Chapter of the Safari Club International, an organization devoted to the conservation of species and game management practices. Ron received Hunter of the Year honors from Big Game Hunters in 1977 and again in 1996. Through
this passion, Ron collected the Big Five in African game and many trophies that qualify for the Safari Club International Record Book.
He served the Masonic fraternity for over 52 years with outstanding devotion and participation. He was called from labor to rest on October 21st, 2015 at the
age of 75.Mr. Krueger is survived by his wife of 38 years, Midge Deppe Krueger; two daughters, Michelle Bayless and Heather Hicker, both of St. Louis; a son,
Ronald Krueger II, of New Orleans; and six grandchildren.

2016 SHRINE CIRCUS UPDATE
Ron Reynolds –Circus Director (314-732-2121)
The 2016 Moolah Shrine circus will be held at the Family Arena in St. Charles. Mark your calendars for March 17th
through the 20th. We will be having the same number of performances as last year.
We will have our Circus parade in Old Town St. Charles on Saturday, March 5th at Noon. After the parade we will
return to Moolah for the Circus kick-off. On Saturday, March 12th we will participate in the Cottleville parade to get
exposure for our circus. All Shriners are asked to join in the fun for all these events.
Everyone should have Ad Packets and Circus Tickets by now. Remember to get out there and SELL.
The kids free coupon tickets are also available. Pick some up and distribute in your area.
What a great idea it would be to give Circus tickets as a Christmas Gift this year. Why not include reserved seats with
those tickets?
The Circus Committee is meeting on the second Wednesday of each month from September to March in the Guides
unit room. Any and all volunteers are welcome to join us. There is always plenty to do. Arrive at 5:30 PM for a light
dinner and the meeting begins at 6:00 PM. Please RSVP so we know how much food to prepare. 314-732-2121 or
rdreynolds6@charter.net.
Our goal is to continue to make our circus the best ever, and to keep the seats full.

December Shriner of the Month
Harold “Chub” Wisely, Sr.
Our Shriner of the Month for December is Harold “Chub” Wisely Sr. Noble Wisely became a
Mason in 1966, joining Craftsman Lodge and
later moved his membership to Harmony Lodge
#499. A Scottish Rite member since 1968, he
joined Moolah in April of 1969.
Active in the lodge and the Shrine, his wife Eunice was also a member of Eastern Star. For 46
years, Noble Wisely has been a member of the
Moolah Guides and continues to do Bingo every
week. Although, he is no longer a driver for the
guides, he is very proud of his eight plus years
of helping our kids. Not only is he still giving his
time to the Shrine, he also still volunteers at the
V.A.
A veteran from World War 2, his brother served
at the Battle of the Bulge while he was in the
Pacific at New Guinea, one of the longest battles
between 1942 until 1945. He is a recipient of the
Purple Heart.
Noble Wisely is active in the Senior Olympics
with sports such as Shot Put, Shuffle Board,
Horseshoes, and Disc throwing.
Noble Wisely shared that he had never served
in office at Moolah, he said it wasn’t important.
The most important thing is helping our kids and
being a good brother.
The Moolah Public Relations team is proud and
honored to have Noble Harold Wisely Sr. as our
Shriner of the Month for December.

Merry Christmas !!!!
The Potentate’s Christmas Holiday Ball is Saturday, December 5th, 2015 at Moolah Temple.
Make your reservations with the Moolah Temple
Office. Stay tuned for the Air Patrols Plans for our
Christmas Celebration.
December 14th, 2015 is the Air Patrol Annual
meeting and Election of Officers. Come on up to the
Hanger and help spread a little holiday cheer and
help to wrap up the year 2015. A notification was
sent out in November to meet the 14 day notice.
Pearl Harbor day is Tuesday, December 7th.
Fly our flag.. The flag of these United States of
America …. Never forget.
Gone West... Illustrious Sir Ronald Krueger. It is
with great sadness that we report the passing of
our friend and brother Illus. Sir Ronald Krueger.
Ronald was a GREAT supporter of the Air Patorl
and Shrine as a whole. He was a founding
member of the Air Patrol. He was our Air Patrol
president in 1972 as well as Moolah Potentate
in 2000. Many remember the great times with
the Wehrenberg Theatre Balloon races. He was
very active and supportive of the many masonic
organizations. Including the youth groups. Ron
was active and supported many community and
philanthropic organizations. We will miss his
energy and drive.
The American Muscle Unit held its yearly Veteran's Day BBQ on Saturday, November 14th to
show our appreciation to our wounded veterans
at Jefferson Barracks. This was the second year
we held this event in conjunction with that great
bunch of guys from the Smokin' Nobles Unit. Our
Units provided hundreds of grilled chicken or
pork steaks with all the fixings to the appreciative
veterans and hospital staff at Jefferson Barracks.
The American Muscle Unit participated in numerous
Parades this year. We drove our American-made
muscle cars as well as both of our Flying Carpet
vehicles with their new, high-powered engines in
parades. This winter, the Unit plans on producing
several more Flying Carpets, but this time on larger,
zero-turn mowers! If this also sounds like fun to you,
join us! We have no initiation fees and no yearly
dues.
If you have a muscle car you would like to show
or parade, join us. If you do not have a muscle
car but would like to drive one of our Magic Carpets, join us! We meet the second Wednesday
of every month at 6:30 pm in the Unit Room we
share with the Hospital Committee. We hope to
see you then.

From Chairman John:
December is the start of cold weather in the Northern
Hemisphere, however we have been very fortunate
that the weather has been moderate during most of
November. The baseball season came to an end with
the K C Royals winning the World Series . Oh well,
there is always next year.
The Potentate has made his final plans for the
year with a fun trip to Branson for a viewing of
the Christmas Lights. On December 5th is his
Holiday Ball. This would be a good time to fill the
Ballroom with Ambassadors.
The Ambassador Christmas party with our Ladies
will be December 11th. All of the Ambassadors
will be receiving a Flyer in the mail.
After 13 years serving as the Ambassador Chairman, I will be retiring as of December 30. Thanks
for all your support with the lunches and social
times. I have always been treated with respect
and have made many lasting friendships along
the way. I will always be available for questions
to help with the Ambassadors.
I call all of the Ambassadors’ attention to the
Ambassador lunches on the 2nd Friday of the
month. The next Ambassador’s Lunch will be
on Friday, December 11 in the Oasis at Moolah
Temple. We will continue to have our popular
open bar and our three drawings: the 50/50, free
dinner and jackpot. You may be a winner but
you won’t have a chance if you do not attend.
Ambassadors, you are missing a great time, if
you do not attend our meetings.

12-5 Potes’ Holiday Ball and Patrol Party
12-7 Patrol Business Meeting
12-12 Santa’s Brunch
12-13 3rd Annual Hospital Patient Party
12-16 Stated Meeting/Christmas Party…Fun and
goodies galore!!
Thoughts/prayers are with our own Ted Dearing
following the loss of his mother, dear Lady Roberta. We also remember Jim Polite who recently
lost his mother.
January will not only bring in a New Year, it will
begin a new era in Patrol history. After 18 years
of outstanding leadership, Captain Buldog will
pass command to Lieutenant Patrick Hensley.
No doubt Patrick will continue the great tradition
of leadership. But he has a tough act to follow.
Since inception, the Patrol has been guided by
11 Captains. Patrick will be number 12. Our two
previous Captains, Grimm and Bachman served
17 and 18 years respectively. The secret of our
success is a long history of consistent leadership.
Doug asked that I share I have been CAMELS’
TALES editor since 2003. Hopefully this has
contributed some consistency too. Patrick and
those who team with him, will establish their own
traditions and styles. But may the tradition of
consistent, reliable leadership remain a hallmark
of all we do. Patrick…Lead and inspire for AT
LEAST 19 years!!
Merry Christmas/Happy New Year. I’m just
sayin’. Yeah baby!!

December is the month of joy to the world! The
blessed birth of Christ...families, good friends,
parties and splendiferous food, the likes of which
answer all your Christmas epicurean desires.
Presents, some given and some received. The
joys of Christmas are wonderful.
Hello from your Moolah Band!
We are now in full swing with our concert season,
and this, to me, is the best year we have ever had
since I have been conducting. The musicianship
of our members continues to improve, and with
new music in our folders, there seems to be an
enthusiasm that is greater than in years past. The
audiences love the music and show it with their
applause and the comments we receive
after each performance.
This is where the call goes out to the Nobles and
their family members who play or have played in
the band. With the participation of a few Nobles,
the Band can reclaim the glory years of the past.
We need to make a good showing to exhibit what
Shrinedom is, and how we are contributing to the
Shriners Hospital. Come out and join us, thereby
guaranteeing that our performances are the best
possible. It would give us a more professional
appearance when we celebrate our Centennial
Anniversary in 2019.
Come see us on Wednesday nights at 7:30 and
rekindle the fun you had when you were in the school
band. We are looking for new members, especially
Nobles who are interested in spreading the word
of what Shriners do for the kids by supporting the
Shriners Hospitals for Children. You may be a Noble
who is looking for a home where you can make use
of your musical talents! If that is the case, please give
me a call or e-mail and I will answer any questions
you may have.
Also, remember we are a community band, so if
your wife, child or grandchild plays an instrument, he or she is welcome to play in the Band.
We meet Wednesday evenings at 7:30 to practice. Our concerts are Tuesday and Wednesday
nights at 7:00.
We would love to have you participate with us.
We always leave ‘em smiling!

Then there is the fun of celebrating and expectations for the New Year. Isn’t it wonderful to
be healthy and/or hopefully mending from any
infirmity, desirous and able to imbibe in a ”self
controlled” amount of an intoxicating beverage
or even a limited amount of Camel’s Milk. You do
want to remember how much enjoyment you had
and if you drove, the road’s twists and turns can
be a challenge to the intoxicated mind.
Talking about celebrating, the Potentate’s Holiday
Ball, December 5th is right around the corner, so
it’s not too soon to get the ol’ suit or tux ready. If
your Lady wishes to grace all with her beauteous
presence at the Ball, don’t forget a corsage will get
you a lot of love and appreciation.
As a matter of fact, she’d probably appreciate
your taking her to this years’ Brunch with Santa
December 12th. It’s mainly for the kids but the
women are invited. It’s fun for all.
Don’t forget The Chanter’s Christmas Party,
December 19th. Genesis has again been commissioned to prepare our Christmas dinner,
so Ladies, no need to bring a thing...just your
husband or a friend.
Sixty-seven words separate us from the end of this
article, so here’s all there’s left to say:
We can attend the Hospital Patient Party December
13th, noon till three o’clock.
We sing for our Kids at The Hospital December 17th.
We can attend Fairwinds Christmas Concert in
St. Charles, Wednesday, December 23rd.
We do NOT have a rehearsal on Monday,
December 28th.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Thanks to all who participated in the Veteran's

always been a great time and a way to show our
appreciation to our veterans and our own clown
veterans. You would be surprised by the number
of veterans in our unit.
This month we also attended the Adoption Saturday at the Family Court Center in Clayton for
the completetion of many family adoptions. This
day was very special for all who attended and
especially the children who became permanent
members of loving familes.
We now have all the Christmas events to look
forward to and I'm sure they will be well attended
by our unit. These events are geared especially
for our children but there are a few geared to just
the adults. The Holiday Ball and the Clown Adult
Chistmas Party are always entertaining and a lot
of fun for all.

Greetings Nobles! December is already upon
us, and you know what that means…time to
vote! Our Stated Meeting, the first Monday of the
month, we will hold our election of officers for
2016, so be sure to show up for this one, as well
as the Christmas/Election Night Stated Meeting
of the entire Nobility, on the third Wednesday.
Make sure your vote is counted, and positions
are set by showing up! We really need to see a
surge in involvement. We saw one in 2014, which
waned throughout the past year, and it’s high time
for us to see a newfound renaissance that rivals
the best of the last decade.
Thanks to everyone who came out to help with
our Fall Ceremonial. A good time was had by all,
and we have some fine new Nobles in the Temple
ranks. It would be great to see some new blood
in our veins, and have a better participation rate
from unit members. Please don’t pass this off as
the “usual nagging,” it’s something we need to
keep our unit relevant, strong and progressive.
Make a commitment to being more active this
year. 2016 will be the beginning of a new era, The
Era of the Directors Staff.
Switching gears to a personal note, this is my last
month as the Secretary and Scribe of the Moolah
Directors Staff, and if you didn’t see me at the
November Stated Meeting, you might again,
at a convention or regional/national gathering
someday. I (Noble Chris Matero) am leaving the
Desert of Missouri, heading to my home in the
West, where I will rest at El Jebel Temple, Oasis
of Denver, Desert of Colorado. I’ve had a great
time at Moolah, and learned some very valuable
lessons about fraternity, brotherhood, and human
interaction here. I am proud to say that I became
a Noble at Moolah, but now I move on to fulfill
a childhood dream, as I used to tell my friends
that I would be an El Jebel Shriner “when I grew
up.” Okay, so I’ll be an El Jebel Shriner, but I
won’t tell anyone I’ve “grown up,” and I hope you
won’t either. Thanks for the memories and times,
Brethren!
The Directors Staff meets the first Monday of
the month, at 7:00 pm sharp. Come early, have
some food, and hang out. Stay late for nuttiness
and shenanigans. We hope to see new faces
and old faces that we haven’t been frightened by,
in quite a while. Show up! We kinda ROCK!!

On Saturday, October 17, Moolah members,
relatives and friends of Ron and Merry Geisler
gathered at their home for their annual Fall Picnic. Again, this year it was a cool day, so we used
up a lot of wood around the big fire pit. The picnic
included those big sausages, chicken, great
chili and other specialties by Merry and other
ladies. Of course, we had nice desserts and huge
roasted marshmallows by the fire. The world
renowned Moolah Drum and Bugle Corps played
for a while until they ran out of songs. They were
replaced by that fine country band, "The Buskin
Bootleggers" who played and sang good ole
country music until closing time. We always have
a great time and we thank Ron and Merry for their
wonderful hospitality for the past 10 years.
Then on October 24, Moolah had the Fall Ceremonial honoring Victor Dane, our late brother,
friend and member. Victor was a talented musician, photographer and jack of all trades. He was
in line to be Potentate in 2016. Since Victor was
a retired fireman and perennial Santa, the Drum
Corps played Jingle Bells at lunch with fireman
hats as our Bob Atwell entered as Santa. We will
all miss Santa Vic. The Moolah ladies also honored his wife Ann at a luncheon in Chesterfield.

STEVE LOVELL
This year has gone quickly and is coming to a close
all too soon. The year has been busy with activities
like the circus, parades, and social gatherings. It has
been my pleasure to be your President for 2015, and
I appreciate the support from all of you. We laughed
at the dinner theater show at Lemp Mansion, cheered
the Grizzlies on, had breakfast on a couple of road
trips, and enjoyed wine on a Sunday afternoon. Thank
you for allowing me to be a part of a great group and I
look forward to more fun days ahead. Congratulations
and good luck to the incoming officers.
Your Prez,

For the Units, Clubs and Committees that held
their elections, congratulations to those new
officers elected.
At our October meeting, we had a couple of guests
from our St. Louis Hospital, one of which is the head
of the Radiology Department. She explained that the
new Hospital was and is in need of new Radiology
Equipment which unfortunately is not covered under
the Capital Expenses. Although they did transfer
Radiology equipment from the old hospital, they are
over 20 years old, out dated physically and technologically and hard to get parts for and repaired. They
prioritized their equipment needs of three pieces
of equipment--the first of which (Mini C-Arm) has
been purchased.The first of which (Mini C-Arm) has
been purchased. The DRX Revolution Mobile Unit
and 9900 Mobile Super C0Arm are the other two
pieces needed. Other fundraising and pledges have
been made towards these other machines. TCAA
has decided to pledge the majority of the funding
needed towards the DRX Revolution Moble Unit to
help finish off the funds necessary to purchase this
machine. Also, earlier in the year we helped with the
purchase of hand sanitizer soap and dispensers for
the New Hospital.
Don’t know what TCAA Stands for or what we do….
Well as you can see we help provide and assist Our
St. Louis Hospital with some of their needs and requests for the hospital and/or patients. Ask your Unit

our mission to support our St. Louis Shriners Hospital. Please give Gary a call (314-697-5290) if you

We could use your help! Our next chip program
is Sunday, December 13th from 11AM to 2 PM
in the ballroom at Moolah Temple, in support of
the Shriners Hospital Patients Holiday Party. This
is easy work, you can do it! Please contact Ken
Fontana to sign up to help at kenfontana@att.net
or call him at 636-485-2984.
We could also use your help parking cars at the
Family Arena during the Shrine Circus, March
17-20th. It takes over 20 people to handle each
performance, so please consider taking a shift
or two. Easy work, directing cars and collecting parking fees. Contact Dan Coffey at dan.
coffey@att.net (314-707-2126) or Tom Cupples at
drtomcupples@gmail.com (636-685-5555) if you
can help.
Our December meetings are on Tuesday December 1 and Tuesday December 15. Dinner is at
6PM with Lodge opening at 7PM. There is a good
chance we will be conferring the Entered Apprentice degree one or both nights. Any Shriner is
welcome to attend a meeting anytime they would
like! Our meeting on Tuesday, January 5, 2016
will be our official visit. Come hear MWB Brent
Stewart’s message as delivered by RWB Phil
Cole, our DDGM.
At this time of year we also turn our attention
to helping those less fortunate, hosting some
families from the Pattonville school district at the
annual Brunch with Santa on December 12th.
I am sad to report the loss of Noble Lodge’s #1
member, our first Worshipful Master Ron Krueger.
When the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons of the State of Missouri granted
Noble Lodge their charter on December 10, 2004,
it did so with Worshipful Brother Krueger being
their first charter member and its first Worshipful Master. He was a champion for the Missouri
Childrens Foundation, actively supporting the
MOCHIP program both financially and by making
his theatre lobbies available for the registration
of children. He served the Masonic fraternity for
over 52 years with outstanding devotion and
participation. He was called from labor to rest
on October 21st, 2015 at the age of 75, and will
be truly missed. Noble Lodges’ charter will be
draped through the rest of 2015 in honor of Ron.
We were also saddened with the loss of Thomas
(Bud) Hildebrand, who was currently serving as
the director of the Moolah Air Patrol.
If you know someone who might be interested in
becoming a Mason, you can be the 1st line signer
of your candidate’s petition. Only 1 signer of a
Masonic petition needs to be from Noble Lodge,
the other signer can be from any Lodge. Keep
this in mind if you have a candidate.
CT
tm

It all starts with you submitting the petition for
your candidate. The petition (and $75 initiation
fee) will be received at our next meeting and
your candidate will be notified. In most cases he
will be invited to attend the next meeting, meet
with the investigating committee and then his EA
degree will be scheduled. Regular meetings are
on the first and third Tuesdays of each month.
If you have any questions, contact the Master or
Secretary from the information listed above.

All hands were invited to be on board the T.C. Pirate Ship for a frightening Halloween Party. Upon
boarding the ship, docked at the Oasis Room,
we were happy to see proof that Sandy and Sue
Jones had spread their magic on our ship from
stem to stern. When all hands were on deck, our
Captain Toni called our meeting to order, gave an
inspiring invocation and led us in the Pledge of
Allegiance to our Flag. Chris made her introductions and brought us up to date on present and
future Moolah Temple Plans. After President Toni
made her introductions, our meeting proceeded
in the regular manner, reading of the minutes,
Treasurer and Committee Reports. Lynn Henning
did report on the progress of the Singles Club and
invited anyone interested to come to a meeting.
The Committee for our 100th Anniversary is working on a terrific plans for next year, don’t miss a
single one.
After another luncheon, served by some scary
pirates, it was fun to play the Pirate Word Games
that Toni provided. They are more fun to play with
a bunch of pirates. We also had pirate treasures
to award. Gail Melton- Best Pirate, Juanita
Hewitt- Best Witch, and Nancy Bradford- Band
Aide. Thanks to everyone who dressed up, you
made our day.
After the POG and WAM made a few pirates
happy, we jumped into our life boats and sailed
off into the sunset. BON VOYAGE.

We want to extend an invitation to all ladies, 18
and older, to join our wonderful group of ladies
for a sisterhood of philanthropy, good friends, and
good times. We would love to have young women
join us aged 18 to 26 to form a special place in
our Temple designed specifically for them. We
welcome their ideas, energy, and willingness to
help support our temple. As always, all our funds
go to support the Shriners Hospital for Children.
Our Annual Bazaar and turkey dinner, October 18
at Freedom Temple was a great success!
Thank You to everyone who donated their time,
energy and resources, and to all those who
supported us by attending this very important
event.

children wore great costumes! We had a wonderfully decorated”rabbit hole” for Alice thanks to
Princess Royal, Vonna Voeger. There were
some very unique trunk displays at the event and
congratulations to the two winners of the contest!
Thanks to all who participated!
Our annual Trivia night was held on November

Merry Christmas from Three Rivers Shrine
Club. We hope you have a joyous and happy
Holiday Season. Illustrious Sir David Dieckhaus
and First Lady Christine invite you to Moolah’s
Holiday Ball, “It’s a Wonderful Life”, Saturday
December 5th in the ballroom. We will not have
our regular meeting in December, but will have
our Christmas Party Saturday December 19th
with Social Hour at 6:30PM, Meal at 7:30PM,
Santa and dancing to follow.
Congratulations to Past President Justin Dortch
on being appointed an Ambassador at the Fall
“Victor Dane” Ceremonial in St. Louis.
Noble Shawn Hanley and Lady Kristie want to
thank each of you for your continued support of
not only our Hospital but Three Rivers Shrine
Club and its members. While they have put a lot
of work, effort, money, and energies in this year, I
think they are ready to move from the podium to
the “old folks” section on the back row.
Continuing on about the year winding up, THANK
YOU Illustrious Sir David and First Lady Christine
for your leadership and all you do not only for
Moolah Temple, but for our Hospital and our Kids.
Welcome back Jim and Norma Stubblefield to
TRSC after living in the Boston area for a few
years. Noble John Hobbs has been drinking a lot
of Pineapple Juice lately; you may want to ask
him why. Congratulations “Papa” Greg Dortch
on your retirement from the railroad and MS
Kathy Dortch on her retirement from the medical
profession.
Scott Rommel has plenty of exciting events in
store for us in 2016 and our club continues to
work hard for our hospitals. Don’t forget Brunch
with Santa at Moolah on December 12th, and
Moolah’s stated meeting/election night December
16th. God has been very generous to Marsha
and me and we want to say Thank You for all
your love and support, and that is an added
bonus to the Miracle God performs through the
work of the staff at OUR hospitals. Say your
prayers and God Bless.
