To the family of Paul Lyons. Thank you for allowing us to share some cherished moments with Paul. Once again death has evaded our masonic ranks. Rest in Peace my Brother. Willie Leathers ZAFA #176.

Sincerest condolences to the family of Paul whom I knew from boyhood in Albright, a smaller community within the contours of North Durham. My fondest memories of our friendship revolve around those earlier summer years when we created our own camp, playing basketball, cards, horseshoes, and croquet. He lived his adult life in the same manner; he engendered a lightlight hearted, positive approach to living. May his family find comfort in those memories.

In deepest sympathy,

Leonard King Raleigh, N C

Resolution of Respect

Past Master Paul Lyons

Once again, a Brother Mason, having completed the designs written for him on life's trestle board, has passed through the portals of Eternity and entered into that House Not Made with Hands, Eternal In the Heavens, and hath received his reward. Whereas, the Grand Architect of the Universe, the omnipotent, has called from labor to refreshment our beloved and respected Brother, and Whereas, our departed Brother has been a true and faithful worker in the quarries of Freemasonry and, Whereashis passing leaves a vacancy in our ranks that cannot be filled, Therefore, be it resolved that Alexander Sterling Hunter Lodge No. 825, Free and Accepted Masons, a subordinate Lodge of the Most Worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of NC, Inc. and its Jurisdictions, hereby tender to the family of our deceased Brother, our sincere condolence in their time of bereavement. Presented this Day: March 13, 2019

From the Brothers of A.S. Hunter #825
