Elks Memorial Ceremony

Every December, on the First Sunday, every Elks Lodge in America remembers their departed members. This day is set apart as a day for Elks to gather and freshen with the dew of recollection the tender blossoms of hope and love entwined about the memory of their departed.  

“The faults of our members we write upon the sand. Their virtues upon the tablets of Love and Memory.”

Those whom we shall see no more, whose contributions toward alleviating pain and suffering, whose long standing preceded us in our roles as officers, committee chairs and volunteers, who sustained this Lodge through times, unimaginable and now celebrated, shall be remembered on this solemn occasion.
