			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is with sincere sadness that we advise of the untimely passing of our Brother Keith Shaw Bussey at the LaSalle General Hospital this morning. A short and unexpected heart problem developed last week causing his admittance to the hospital&#8217;s intensive care facility. Regretfully his condition deteriorated over the short period.</p>
<p>Our sincere sympathies are extended to his only brother David Bussey and his wife Catherine of Edmonton Alberta. It is our understanding that arrangements are being made for his cremation, whereby his ashes will be returned with the family to Alberta. There will be no visitation or formal funeral services at this time.</p>
<p>St. Andrews Lodge No.53 will be holding a Memorial Service in his honour. Details to follow. May he rest in peace.</p>
<p>Fraternally yours,</p>
<p>Bro. Keith H. LeBrun<br />
Secretary, St. Andrews Lodge No. 53 A.F.&#038; A. M. GRQ.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today March 5th we made a fraternal visit to Avonmore Lodge close to Cornwall Ontario. </p>
<p>The delegation  left Montreal at about eight AM. We carpooled so that help with expenses. The group was under the direction of V. W. Bro. Martin and supported by W. Bro. Lisio.</p>
<p>We were about seventeen Bro and exemplified the third degree. We were warmly welcomed and treated to a wonderful banquet hour with enough food to feed a small village.</p>
<p>Visiting is a corner stone masonry, and fraternal exchange visits are a Keystone.</p>
<p>I hope we can make this an annual event (perhaps on a exchange basis).</p>
<p>Thank-you  Avonmore 452!</p>
