Dear Brethren All,  

Since my last letter there has been a number of deaths reported of our brethren, all of whom are special to me but there are three that I wish to record because of their prominence in the Province. V. W. Bro. Dr. Roger Jago, P.G.M.O., P. A.Prov. G.M., and Past Grand Superintendent Royal Arch. V. W. Bro. Peter James, P.G.J.O. and a past Provincial Secretary, W. Bro. Patrick Burridge, P.G. St. B., and Past Deputy Provincial Secretary, a post he stood down from due to his failing health, All of these brethren have served this province with distinction and dedication, their families are in our thoughts and prayers.

There are many events in life which can lead to the development of anguish, stress and depression. It may occur through a difficult life event like a bereavement or redundancy, relationship problems, upsetting or traumatic experiences which may be recent of have occurred some time ago or just a feeling of low self-esteem, sadness or anger. It is not unusual to have these feelings, they are common, and the good thing is that help is always available, and that help can make a real difference.

Dear Brethren All,

Time marches on and we are now in an Autumnal period, with misty starts to the day and only about 12 hours of daylight. The garden seems now to want to ‚Äúsleep,‚Äù there are still a few blackberries on the bushes but they do not appear to ripen. Potatoes are still being dug but the crop is small this year so tally ho, we look forward to perhaps a better year next year. The lawns have not fully recovered from the beautiful sunshine that we were blessed with and again I must be patient. We have a large fir hedge imposing itself from next door so that needs cutting back, out with the saw and away we will go.
