E. Comp. Paul Raby, PPGSN - 50 Years A Royal Arch MasonPaul is a member of the Chapter of Integrity No. 380, into which he was Exalted on the 7th May, 1970 and became its MEZ in 1987. He received his 1st Appointment in Provincial Grand Chapter in 1993 to the Acting Rank of Provincial Grand Standard Bearer and received his last Promotion in 2000 to PPGSN. Over the years he has filled many Offices and undertaken several roles in the Chapter. He is still active and participates in the work whenever called upon. Outside of Freemasonry, Paul did not follow his father into the family bakery business but qualified as a Chartered Accountant. He worked for his father in law's firm in Leeds and, following the death of his father in law, took over the reins expanding the business before selling the practice prior to his eventual retirement. Paul has been married to Margaret for over sixty years and has two children and six grandchildren. Such a lifetime achievement deserves proper celebration but alas, the suspension of Masonic meetings and social distancing, means that we cannot do it. However, Paul has received his certificate through the post with a personal letter of congratulations from the Grand Superintendent. We hope, in the not too distant future, that Paul will be able to have a belated celebration in his Chapter, but for now we all convey him our hearty congratulations. |
