M.W. Brother Van Gorden also made a presentation of a plaque recognizing Ill. J. William McNaughton, Past Sovereign Grand Commander of the AASR, NMJ, as the recipient of the Jack Jones Memorial Humanitarian Award for 2020. This award is presented annually by the MRC to a brother Mason who has best displayed the great character and principled values of the late Ill. Jack H.
