Quincy Adams Masonic Lodge No. 71, Friendship, hosted their first annual Breakfast with Santa Clause event on December 14. Pictured above are Santa and his work crew (from left): Richard Dunn, Michael Willis, Wil Roelke, Mark Jerdee, Shannon Hady, WM Robert Theim, Most Worshipful Grand Master Jeffrey S. Schoenfeldt, Diana Doucette, Paul Doucette, Ryan Miranda and Ronald Doty.
“Although it was a bitter cold morning, we had an amazingly marvelous turnout.” Master Robert Theim reported. “The event consisted of a captivating magic show put on by The Magnificent Ron, along with a full breakfast. Santa and Mrs. Clause were present to give gifts and guidance to the young ones.”
This event held special meaning to the members of Quincy Adams Lodge as Brother Monte Kramer was the driving force behind initiating this activity and unfortunately, he lost his life in a tragic accident shortly before the event took place. “Brother Kramer would have been delighted with the thrill so many children received from their opportunity to sit and visit with Santa,” Theim reflected.
