PSR Mildred Weinstein, a member of Neptune Temple of
Brooklyn, New York. has passed away. Mildred's
Pythian life was an exemplary one. It began in the
late 1960's when she joined Claremore Temple, in
Manhattan. Mildred was elected Grand Secretary of
the Jurisdiction of New York in 1985 and served
until 1990.
Recently, she became a dual member of Bright Star
Temple in Florida. It is said that no one person is
indispenable, and that is true, but one can be
irreplaceable, and that was Mildred Weinstein.

P.S.R. Sir Cecil Labow, Syracuse Lodge #9, Domain of
Quebec, joined our order in 1947, after proudly
serving Canada in the Second World War. He
experienced the pain and horror of war and knew when
he returned his mission was to promote friendship,
charity and benevolence.
The list of Cecil’s Pythian achievements in the
Domain of Quebec is a very long and impressive one,
such as the establishment of the Quebec Pythian
Cemetery Association. He supervised very carefully
to ensure that it’s a first class Jewish Orthodox
Cemetery, and all laws of the Jewish religion are
strictly obeyed and observed.
His greatest achievement was the founding of the
Jewish Hospital of Hope, a senior’s hospital in
Montreal. He was involved when the land was
purchased, and he watched as it was built, raising
millions of dollars to transform this hospital into
a first class seniors’ residence. McGill University
recognizes the Hospital as one of their best
teaching hospitals for geriatric research.
May his family be spared all future sorrow.
PGC John Derrick, Grand Secretary, Domain of Quebec |
