At the Provincial Grand Lodge of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight meeting on 6th February 2015, Brother William George Davis was presented with a certificate to mark his 70th year in Freemasonry. At the Regular Lodge meeting of Gosport Lodge No.903 on Tuesday 10th February Bill was, as ever, in attendance and reported to the Brethren that this award was entirely unexpected but that he was absolutely delighted and extremely proud to have received it. At the Festive Board that followed the Worshipful Master, Brethren of Gosport Lodge and their visitors were delighted to propose a toast to Bill and share a glass of port with him. Since posting this on our Facebook page and Twitter there have been many re-posts/re-tweets (including by the Province and also UGLE) and many messages of congratulations and admiration. Well done Bill – we look forward to many more years!
