Memorial Day is more than the unofficial start of summer. It is a day set aside to honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. They gave their tomorrows so that we could enjoy our todays. Their courage, devotion, and selflessness remind us that freedom is never free.

As Freemasons, we are taught the values of honor, duty, integrity, and service to others. These same virtues were embodied by those we remember this Memorial Day. While we can never repay their sacrifice, we can honor their memory by living lives worthy of the freedoms they preserved, by caring for one another, strengthening our communities, and striving each day to leave the world a little better than we found it.

Let us enjoy the fellowship of friends and family, but let us also pause in gratitude for those who are not here to celebrate with their loved ones. May we remember them, honor them, and never take for granted the blessings their sacrifice secured.

May God bless our fallen heroes, their families, our Armed Forces, and the great State of New Jersey.



I love you all, and there is nothing you can do about it.

Fraternally,

Omar S. Morris

William H Macy and Susan Sarandon are currently in production of a movie titled "Exit Right". An independent film which recently spent two days, May 14TH & 15TH, filming in Ridgewood New Jersey.

While shooting scenes around town, they utilized Fidelity Lodge No. 113 for Wardrobe, Hair and Makeup. The cast and crew were delightful to work with and the location coordinator will contact us again if they have similar needs throughout New Jersey in the future.
