VW Bro Fernando Bautista Drops Working Tools: 24 June 2010

Brethren,


One of the Pillars and foundation of Lincoln Lodge No. 34 and Worthy Bro. VW Fernando Bautista dropped his working tools this morning, past 3:00 am. He is now on that undiscovered country and in the care of the GAOTU, where travelers never return. May he rest in peace.

VWBro Fernando 'Nanding' Baustista is not only a brother to most of us, but also a Dad to countless of Teodoro R Yangco DeMolays & Jobies of Bethel No 1. He was very active in these two young peoples' organisations as well as other Masonic appendant organisations at Lincoln Lodge.

We are all saddened by his demise and we will remember him in our prayers; as well as his surviving family - most of whom are also our brothers in DeMolays & sisters in Jobies.

May he rest in peace in the bosom of God!

Fraternally,

Bro Mario Baylon Jr

Growing up in Olongapo City I was one of the fortunate who were taken under the wings of many great men of Lincoln Lodge No. 34. Men who later became my Brothers--- he was one of our Troop 5 Boy Scout leaders, he was the installed Senior Warden when I was raised as Master Mason. Brother Nanding was a great man and a legend through the eyes of those who truly treasured his noble deeds to his family, community, and to those of us who were lucky enough to be close by.

"Our Order reminds us of the hourglass
to watch the grains of sand passing through the portal of time.
no matter how many honors and accomplishments each of us achieved
our sand will keep on pouring until nothing is left behind.
The lecture in the second section taught us that the hourglass is not a symbol of time
Further Light and Lessons of the Craft reminds us that unlike time
Life is finite."

So Mote It Be
