MASONIC PHILOSOPHY The Masonic Lodge is not made up of four walls, ritual, or old records, but rather consists of its members. Through our shared (and personally affirmed) obligations, we owe our first fraternal duty to our Brothers and not to a particular process or procedure. My three F s are different than VWB Vesper s. They are Faith, Family & Fraternity. These three sustained me through very difficult times, and sustain me to this day. They are the bedrock of all we have promised to each other as Fraternal Brothers. Finally, if you ain t having fun you ain t doing it right! PERSONAL Married 46 years to Alta. We have two daughters, 4 grandchildren, and (still!) have a 2010 Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Ultra, with 103 Cubic Inches of get-up-and-go!

OTHER: Family: My wife, Lorraine is my pillar of support and encouragement. We make all life changing decisions together. Lorraine is my sounding board and her feedback is invaluable. What I enjoy most in Masonry is the fellowship, being among Brothers trying to make a difference, whether it is in Masonry or in their local communities. How we as Masons meet, act and part should be a part of our daily lives with all humankind, not just with other Masons. By keeping true to our beliefs, and adhering to the three tenets and four cardinal virtues, we as Masons can succeed in making a difference within ourselves, our families and in society.

TRUSTEE, WASHINGTON MASONIC CHARITIES DEAN W. HEINEMANN STATEMENT Several years ago I stated that the time had come for me to fade from Masonic view for a time and go fly-fishing.

I feel that I still have something of value (Leadership, Management of Assets, Business Long-Term Planning, and Accountability) to offer to the continuing success of Washington Masonic Charities.

We need to actively practice Charity, become involved in our communities and with our families. We need to strive to keep those principles that make us distinguished Masons, but be ready to make those changes that are necessary to keep our Fraternity moving into the future. We need to attend to our lodges and the buildings, ensuring that the Masonic Light that our forebearers provided to us will continue to reach succeeding generations of good men, so that they may improve themselves, and in turn, improve the world that they live in.
