Wednesday, July 17, 2013 Photos by ELLIS NOELL What it was Saturday was a Zombie Walk sponsored by the YMCA and Mauney Memorial Li- brary and everyone who donated a book to the local library was made up as a zombie and pa- raded at noon from Mauney Library to Patriots Park — all in the name of a good cause and a feature of the ongoing Summer Reading program. Participants said the adult/teen program “was a blast and fun.” The Kings Mountain Herald | www.kmherald.net Zombie Walk Page 7B Kelly, McGill receive Diamond Jubilee Awards Two Kings Mountain Masons — Clayvon Kelly and Norman F. McGill, Jr. — were hon- ored recently with Diamond Jubilee Awards by Fairview Lodge 339 AF&AM. The certificates and pins presented to Kelly and McGill on July 11 and July 12 by Masons Toney Wells and Jim Medlin repre- sent 60 years of membership in the Masonic Lodge by the well-known Kings Mountain residents. : The white gold medal, cast in the form of a circle, a symbol of unity, is embroidered with blue, the colors of the heavens. It signi- fies the lasting qualities of friendship to those who are linked together by the permanent chain of sincere affection found in the frater- nity of Freemasonry. Upon its face is im- printed the seal of Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons of North Carolina, and at the bottom of the circle are the words “60 years.” Around the border of this award is a beautiful laurel wreath. At the apex of the Masonic compasses is a diamond in focal significance of this memorable occasion. Said Medlin, “Freemasonry teaches a proper reverence, respect and veneration for age, because the fraternity recognizes in the passing of the years an inevitable increase in knowledge. These years of life have a further significance when they have been spent in the service of the downtrodden and in a life dedicated to the uplifting of humanity, the service of those who walk the paths of life in brotherly love and friendship and to the glory of God. The fraternity of freemasonry looks , to age for wisdom and upon wisdom Freema- sonry builds the walls of each of its laudable enterprises. Clavon and Norman are beauti- ful and perfect examples of men who have shared their lives in helping distressed elder individuals and children who need a home and family-care and Fairview Lodge honors them for continued, dedicated, uninterrupted 60 years of dedicated service.” ioe 3 alias 2 Auxiliary Officers i s Lib Stewart photo Pictured are new officers of Bessemer City American Legion Auxiliary Unit 243 after their in- stallation last Thursday.
