Past Masters of Petaluma-Hamilton #180
It is both a privilege and an accomplishment to sit in the East, wearing the apron and ornaments of a Lodge's Worshipful Master. After years of study and dedication to the Lodge and to the Craft in general, including terms serving as both Junior and Senior Wardens, the potential Master must be voted on by the entire assembled brethren, and prove his proficiency to the Grand Lodge, showing that he is prepared and ready to lead a Lodge of California Freemasons.
In the many years of this Lodge's history, many men have sat in the Oriental Chair, guiding the Lodge, and in many cases Petaluma itself, into continued prosperity and generosity, forging a legacy that all Masons of Petaluma-Hamilton #180 are proud to serve and maintain. We hold these men and their accomplishments with reverence.
