Shakespeare Lodge No. 750

Free & Accepted Masons of the Grand Lodge of the State of New York

M.˙.W.˙. Vincent Libone, Grand Master

W.˙. Michael Daniels, Master

Grand Lodge of the State of New York

 

 

The Master hold the title "Worshipful" because his is the most respected office in the lodge. The Brethren have entrusted their Worshipful Master with the ultimate responsibility for all of the various workings of the lodge. The Brethren of the lodge trust that they and the lodge will "pleasure and profit" for the leadership of the Master whom they have elected. Over the years, Shakespeare Lodge has been blessed by a continuous stream of Worshipful Masters who have exhibited leadership and brought the lodge honor and respect, both within and without the District. This litany would not be complete without noting the Masters' right hand in the South East. He is one of the two operating officers of the lodge. It is his watchful eye which helps guide the new Master through the Masonic year.
