A Complete Waste of Space

Thought you might be interested in this my old man picked up a heap of one of my grandfathers and great grandfathers swag including his 33rd degree box amongst other things, theres swords and medals and interesting things up the wahzoo

supposedly, that stuff should be remanded to the Supreme Council, or have been buried with him. So, I was told, when my Dad passed.

He was buried with some stuff and as for whats left no idea why it didnt go back then and from the terminal prognoses it was pretty quick but then they were involved with his funeral so i dont know dude. But its nice to have some keepsakes that meant a lot to him.

the Supreme Council stuff(33rd degree) is supposed to be pretty tightly controlled, even to family members. Just went through that with Dad, although his prognosis wasn't long, either, for planning of disposal. I just handled it after the fact, per instructions from the senior Masons.

Does it differ in rite and lodge?

it may. Dad was Scottish Rite Freemason. Where the feck is Dawg when we could actually stand to hear from him?
