How long is our Cable Tow?  Members of Level No. 373 and Jacques de Molay No. 389, and several appendant bodies, including Orleans Chapter No. 167, Order of Eastern Star, recently affirmed its length when they assisted W: Bro. Willis W.J. Couch, Jr., P.M., at his request by performing Masonic Funeral Rites on Sunday, March 29, 2009 for his father, Brother Willis Couch, who passed away on April 23, 1992.  Using a ceremony revised by W: Bro. Dr. Eric C. Hahn, P.M. and Past Grand Organist, a memorial service was conducted in which some twenty Brothers and guests, including two new Entered Apprentices, participated.  How long is our Cable Tow?  Sometimes, it can be very, very long and stretch over many years.  In this case, seventeen years to fulfill the wishes of a Brother.
