Brother

Evan Weisenfeld

10 years as a Mason

What brought you to Freemasonry?

I was told my grandfather was a Mason and a Shriner so had positive vibes from an early age. In 2016 when my mother was at a Masonic healthcare facility in Pennsylvania, I spent a lot of time driving back and forth and kept hearing radio commercials. I went to an open house and here we are.

What does being a Mason mean to you in one sentence?

Being part of a group of people with similar interests and values - knowing I will have their back and they will have mine.

Who in the lodge has had the biggest influence on you and why?

There are a few people that have been a big influence including RW Rich Ryder and Bro. Joe Greif who passed away a few years ago. Their friendship and support has been really meaningful and made me feel welcome from day 1.

Right Worshipful

Richard Ryder

36 years as a Mason

What brought you to Freemasonry?

I was baptized at the Roslindale Congregational Church, which was gathered in 1890. Men from the church were instrumental in forming Prospect Lodge, which was chartered in the same year and also in Roslindale. The church continued a long tradition of men belonging to both, one of whom was Bruce Marshall who recommended I join Prospect Lodge and sponsored me. I later affiliated with Rabboni Lodge to expand my close Masonic relationships.

What does being a Mason mean to you in one sentence?

Through the tenets of brotherly love, relief, and truth, Freemasonry provides a means to improve myself in all my rolls, while associating with like-minded men whom I can trust and will support me during times of uncertainty.
