Worthy Grand Matron:

The Fifty-Sixth Annual Session of the Grand Chapter of Wisconsin opens with the world standing on the threshold of the Atomic Age, an age in which all nations have been united into one world, headed together for peace or for destruction. The alternative we choose will be decided by man’s will to create a world of Peace and Brotherhood—man’s will determined by his Faith in God.

The editor of Star Dust has extended to me much appreciated courtesy of bringing several messages to the members of our Grand Jurisdiction this year. Outstanding have been the inspiring articles written by Rev. Harold Wagner, Worthy Patron of West Allis Chapter.

Visits: November 8, Friends Night at Oriental Chapter. November 14, Friends Night at Fidelity Chapter at which time five members of Job’s Daughters were given the degrees of the Order of the Eastern Star in a beautiful and impressive ceremony. November 18-21 attended the Grand Chapter sessions of Arkansas and Oklahoma. November 30 attended a party at Martha Washington for Sister Ruth Kitchen, Grand Lecturer. December 15, regular meeting and reception by Wauwautosa Chapter in honor of Sister Florence Clasen, Grand Organist. Good intentions to attend this entire affair were thwarted by sub-zero temperatures and a frozen car. January 18, Golden Anniversary at Vega Chapter. February 23, Golden Anniversary of Electa Chapter. February 26 Officers of Waukesha Chapter celebrated their 52nd birthday dressed in colonial outfits with a Williamsburg program. March 8, the night of the Big Snow – not one of the out of town guests, except the inspecting officer was able to come. However 17 officers and 40 other faithful and courageous members of my home chapter enjoyed double servings of dinner and a fine inspection of our work by the Grand Lecturer. April 30, Golden Anniversary of Aurora Chapter. May 5, the Golden Anniversary of St. Omar Chapter. May 10 – following the inspection meeting, Medford Chapter entertained in honor of Sister Hilda Peitersen, Grand Martha. June 2, Queen Esther Chapter entertained at a reception and tea in honor of Sister Nettie Palmer, Grand Esther. The newly organized Bethel of Job’s Daughters added beauty to the program.

Official Visits: 63

Although our International Temple Fund Committee in Wisconsin was discharged in 1942, I received a report of the recent contributions that showed that up to September 30, 1945, Wisconsin ranked sixth in comparison with other Grand Jurisdictions in the total contributions made toward this project. Wisconsin may feel justly proud of this accomplishment.

The Veterans Home at Wood was not a Grand Chapter project this year. However, a donation was made in response to an appeal. I would also mention the commendable work that individual chapters, chiefly in the vicinity of Wood have continued to do by giving of their time, money and service to the comfort of the veterans at Wood.

RON CAMPBELL May 24, 1935 – November 17, 2003

Ron Campbell

L to R – Bud Wallburger, Ron Campbell, Craig Campbell, Jim Campbell

Freemasonry as it is practiced in Wisconsin today is in some measure
due to Ron’s influence. As one of the four originators of what is now known
as the Wisconsin Program, he helped spearhead a revolution in how
we view and practice our post­ing examinations, returning our attention
to understanding what the degrees actually mean.
In addition to his contribution to the Wisconsin Program posting exams,
perhaps his greatest impact was the leadership he provided by communi­cating
with so many Masons the virtues of a method of posting that included
the rich history and real meaning of Masonry.
It is one thing to develop an innova­tive idea, it takes a very special per­son
to mold the vision into reality—this was the kind of man Ron was,
and Freemasonry in Wis­consin is far better for his having passed this way.
We will all miss his thundering laugh, his attention to detail, his frank speech,
his clear thinking and his true leadership on so many issues.
We take comfort that he has heard the welcome words,
“Well done good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.”
Brother Ron has finally found his way home.
Brother Ron was initiated an Entered Apprentice on October 19, 1967,
passed to the degreeof Fellowcraft on November 16 and raised to the sublime
degree of Master Mason on December 21 that same year, all in Shawano Lodge.
In Shawano Lodge Ron ascended through the chairs, serving as Master
in both 1974 and 1975. He was elected Treasurer in 1993 and held that position
until his passing. At the Grand Lodge level he served as an Area Administrator
between 1983-1985 as District Counselor in 1986-1987, and as District 4 Lecturer
held a proficiency card from 1988 until the time of his death.
He became a member of the Order of the Eastern Star in 1969 and served as
Worthy Patron in 1971. 1980. 1996-98 and 2001-03.
He became a member of White Shrine in 1972 and served as Watch­man of
Shepherd’s Fire in 1975-76, 1978,1981 and 1983.
Although he was no longer active in the York Rite, he joined the
Royal Arch Masons in 1970, Knights Tem­plar in 1976, and the Council of Royal
and Select Masters in 1983.
He became a member of Scottish Rite in 1974 and served as
Thrice Potent Master of the Lodge of Per­fection 1987-88,
Director of the 6th, 23rd, and Abe Lincoln Degrees; Commander -in-Chief
for the Consistory in Scottish Rite, had a class named in his honor,
and received the Meritorious Service Award, the prized Red Hat, in 1995.
He became a member of Tripoli Shrine in 1974, was a charter mem­ber of
the Shawano Shrine Club in 1974 and served as its president in 1978.
He served as the Club Circus Chairman from 1980 to the present.
Past President of the Shawano Past Master’s Club. He became a charter member
of Beja Shrine in 1986, serving on the ritualistic divan from inception
to the present. He served as Chief Ambas­sador of the North Zone 1986-1992,
Ambassador General 1992-1997, and a Shrine Ceremonial class was named
in his honor in December 1993.
In his service to others, he was a driver for the Shrine to take children
down to Chicago for treatment at the Shrine Hospital, and was scheduled
to make a trip on Friday, November 19, the day of his funeral.
In the community, he served as the Salvation Army Bell Ringing Chair­person
for 20 years to the present. He also served as a food pantry assis­tant at the
Methodist Church and worked tirelessly in many of the council positions
of the church and on the building and grounds committee;


Carl Leroy Carmichael 5/18/1933 to 6/17/2019

 Carl was a member, past master, and former trustee, of Shawano Lodge No. 170, where he has a long history of committee and other assignments.  When he retired from his last professional position as the Executive Assistant to the Wisconsin State Superintendent of Public Instruction in 1990, Grand Master Dean Massey asked Carl to use some of his new spare time in doing some work for the Grand Lodge.  He was appointed to a long range planning committee created by the Grand Master to address several organizational and operational concerns.  Following that appointment, Grand Master James Zimmerman appointed Carl to the Grand Lodge committee that managed the Grand Lodge Home endowment and other funds.  This appointment was followed by being appointed to the Masonic Home Board of Directors.   That resulted in Carl serving several years with different board responsibilities, including Home Board Chairman, and during the time when the Masonic Home became Three Pillars, and changed and expanded its mission.Carl, a native of Missouri, his wife Janell, and their 2 sons moved from Iowa to Shawano in 1962, where he served as a school administrator.  Having an interest in land use management, conservation, and ecology, he was instrumental in the adoption of the first Shawano County and township zoning and land use ordinances, and later was involved in creating the Shawano Lake Sanitary Dstrict.   Carl and Janell have a long record of participation in church, civic, and community affairs. Both of them are 50 year members of Eastern Star, and are strong proponents of Masonic organizatiions.

When Masons in northeastern Wisconsin expressed an interest
in having a Three Pillars presence in that corner of the state, Carl, along
with several other Masons, agreed to provide some leadership in making that
desire become a reality, and a Mason on Shawano Lake was added to the
senior living aspect of Three Pillars.

Carl received the“Grand Masters Maratorious Service Award” from
Grand Master Beecher Daniels, in part due to the development at Mason Woods,
and Carl is very proud of this award.

In receiving the 50 year member award, Carl said “the
nice thing about being a Mason for 50 years is the length of time I have had to
become acquainted with, and to work with, so many fellow members of the craft,
a great group of men”.

John Hill

 John Hill Initiated November 18, 1952
Passed April 18, 1955
Raised April 28, 1956

John Hill, Nominated for Distinguished Citizen of the Year

Leadership:
John retired to Shawano after a long and varied career in
banking and financial planning.  He has
deep roots in Shawano, as the Hills were some on the first Shawano settlers.

John Hill has been a Mason for 55 years and serves as the
secretary for Shawano Masons Inc. a 501©3 charity
John 
is on the Wisconsin State Judicial Oversight Committee.
He is a member of the SCEPE Loan Committee,
and on the City of Shawano Housing Authority Board.

Community Service:
John is a United Way volunteer and is a former County Board
member.  He currently serves on the Job
Center’s Board as well.
John’s most recent and perhaps
one of the most meaningful contributions to the community was his
idea to get a food distribution center located in the Shawano area to
accommodate a great need and save thousands of dollars for the
area food 
pantries in transportation costs.

He has coordinated the resources of the community, private
donations, grant applications, county and city government and
volunteers to 
make the Shawano Area Food Center a reality.

The Food Center opened in January 2011 and is the central
distribution location for 16 area food pantries.  Before the Center opened,
the closest place t
o obtain this food was the Feeding America program in Omro, WI.
Only 3 for the 16 local pantries were able to utilize that source.
Now all 16 access the Shawano Food Center.

A recent survey of local food pantries by Shawano County
determined that there are approximately 1500 families using
the 16 local food 
panties.

Nothing happens without a champion and on this project
John was the model of a project champion.

John Hill – Board Emeritus
(In 2017 John Hill one of the original members of the board
was designated an 
honorary member because of his failing health
he was unable to actively continue his distinguished
service to the 501(C)3 board of directors)
John donated his time and funds to Shawano Masons Inc.
John passed on April 25, 2020

Economic and Business Development:
John is retired but has served as a County Board member,
is on the SCEPE loan committee and the Job Center Board.
He continues to promote job creation in the 
Shawano area.
