Junior Past Worthy Provincial President Joseph Millette performed the eulogy and prayers were led by Worthy Provincial President Wayne Bucklage. The 5th Lecture was delivered by Past Worthy President Dale Enns and Amazing Grace was sung by Past Worthy President Phil Aldridge. The Processional consisted of Brothers and Sisters of the Provincial Aerie and Auxiliary, with the 9-man Honor Guard composed of three Brothers each from New Westminster Aerie #20, Maple Ridge Aerie #2831 and Abbotsford Aerie #2726. Family members, friends, fellow officers and Past Provincial Worthy and Madam Presidents were in attendance to bid Bro. John farewell. We will miss his tremendous dedication to duty and his broad but gracious humor very much.
