ADDRESS OF THE MOST ILLUSTRIOUS GRAND MASTER
Teddy R. Grogan, Jr.
2011-2012
To the Officers, Past Most Illustrious Grand Masters, Companions,
and Distinguished Guest of the Grand Council of Royal and Select
Masters of Alabama:
It is my pleasure and distinct honor to welcome each and every
one of you to the One Hundred Seventy-Fourth Annual Assembly of the
Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of Alabama. Thank you for
being here. This is not only the time to conduct the business of the
Grand Council, but to renew old friendships and to make new ones. We
would like to extend to each and every one a cordial and fraternal
greeting and we hope and pray that your visit will be and has been a
most enjoyable one here in Birmingham.
To our guests from our Sister jurisdictions, many of whom have
traveled many miles to be here, we extend to you every courtesy and
all the hospitality that can be afforded to you. We pray that you
will have a most enjoyable stay. If there is anything any of us can
do to make your visit better, please let me or any officer know.
STATE OF THE CRAFT
The decline in membership continues in our councils, but I
believe there is hope for the future. I believe we will see more men
coming into our fraternity. The reasons are twofold. First,
everything I read about the generation of Americans born from 1982-
2002, known as the Millennials, will change our culture. This
generation is predicted to be more civic minded and more likely to
join organizations like the Masonic Lodge than the generation before
them. Second, the favorable publicity our fraternity has received
from movies like “National Treasure” and books like Dan Brown’s The
Lost Symbol have created nationwide interest in Masonry. We need to
be more involved in our communities. We need to let the public know
![Page 4: ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-EIGHTH...ROYAL AND SELECT MASTERS Of ALABAMA HELD FEBRUARY 24TH, 25TH, 26TH, 2012 THE HILTON PERIMETER PARK SOUTH BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA PRESIDING 2011-2012 TEDDY](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051805/5ff965ea2f4464125f43d08e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)

that we are more than just a group that meets a couple time a month,
and “who knows what goes on behind those four walls”.
On a positive note, if you remember last February we voted to
change our investment strategy to try to maximize our return. The
Finance Committee along with our Grand Secretary/Recorder and Grand
Treasurer met with Randy Holcomb of BB&T Investments last August to
begin developing this plan. Also I would like to take this
opportunity to thank Ron Thomas and Hiram Williams for the work they
put into developing our new meeting schedule. We understand that
this is a work in progress, and if any of the Companions/Sir Knights
see where we can improve our new format we would appreciate your
input.
NECROLOGY
We are truly thankful that our Supreme Master has been fit to
leave our Grand Line intact this year. However, our hearts are
saddened by the loss of many good companions. May the Supreme Master
fold his loving arms around our departed brethren. Our Illustrious
Grand Chaplain will have more through his report.
DISPENSATIONS
On October 17th, 2011 I granted dispensation for Eureka
Council # 5 to wear York Rite uniforms/aprons in the Huntsville
Veteran’s Day Parade. On May 3rd, 2011, I granted dispensation for
Tuscaloosa Council #4 to move their charter to Moundville and change
the date of their meeting to Tuesday after the Blue Lodge meeting.
This was due to the destruction of Rising Virtue Lodge during the
April 27th, tornado. On May 9
th, 2011 I granted dispensation for
Florence Council #74 to meet and vote out of turn in order to bring
their candidates to the Birmingham Metro York Rite spring class.
AUDIT
I authorized the Grand Recorder to turn all books and files
of the Grand Council of Alabama over to the Audit Review Committee
for their inspections and audit.
Visitations
During this year I was able to visit the Grand York Rite
sessions of South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, and
Mississippi. The highlight of the year was being able to attend the
Southeastern York Rite Conference in Chattanooga, Tennessee. This
conference was a lot of fun and a great experience. I would
recommend this meeting to every York Rite Mason. I attended the
Southeastern Grand Master’s Conference at Stone Mountain, Georgia. I
was also able to attend the Triennial in Raleigh, North Carolina. I
represented the Grand Council at the annual meeting of the Most
Worshipful Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of Alabama last
November. To those York Rite Bodies in Alabama I did not get to
attend, I sincerely apologize. My work kept me from attending may
functions.

CONCLUSION
Companions, I would like to thank each of you for allowing
me to serve as your Most Illustrious Grand Master this past year.
Companions, I have served as a Grand Officer of this Grand York Rite
since first being elected as Grand Master of the First Veil of the
Grand Chapter in February of 1996. Today ends my journey through the
Grand Lines. Words cannot express how much I appreciated all of the
support you have shown me during these years. This has been an
experience I will never forget. I have made friends that will last a
lifetime.
To the Right Eminent Grand Commander Jack Wade and his Lady
Brenda and Most Excellent Grand High Priest James Tidmore, Lynn and
I want you to know what a privilege it was to serve with you. To the
Grand Recorder Hiram Williams and his Lady Cindy, there are just not
enough words to express our gratitude for all of your work and help
in making this a great year for me. A special thanks to Companion
Lee Campbell for making sure our York Rite Officers meeting in
Prattville went as planned and to Brother MacArthur Davis for
cooking the best steaks in Alabama. I also want to thank the
Piedmont York Rite Bodies for all their support. Those Companions
and Sir Knights have always been there when I needed them. I want to
say a special thank you to my Grand Marshall, Companion Charles
“Poochie” Singleton and his Lady Judy. They traveled many, many
miles this year with Lynn and me. They represented the Grand Council
of Alabama in a way that would make everyone proud.
The biggest thank you of all goes to my wonderful wife,
Lynn. I don’t think she knew what she was getting into when we
married almost forty years ago. Lynn has supported me in all my
Masonic endeavors, but she is probably looking forward to the time
when I am not gone all the time. Thank you, Lynn, for travelling
with me this year. It wouldn’t have been nearly as much fun without
you.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON FINANCE
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master, Grand Officers, and
Companions of the Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of
Alabama:
We, your Finance Committee, submit the following report for your
consideration.
We have examined the Review of the Grand Council Balance Sheets as
reported by the Audit Committee and find them in order and recommend
your approval. We have reviewed the insurance and bonds on the
Treasurer and Recorder and find them adequate in coverage.
We changed our investment policy last year and now have our money
invested with BB&T thru their bond department and we are drawing
interest at a higher rate than what CD’s are paying.
This Budget was prepared by this committee; we were assisted by
the Grand Illustrious Master, Grand Recorder and Grand Treasurer.
We recommend the budget be accepted as printed.
Respectfully submitted,
James C. McGee, KYGCH, Chairman
Jimmy D. O’Dell, KYGCH

We your audit committee have reviewed the books and records of the

the records we reviewed that would lead us to believe that a
modification to the financial statements would be warranted. In our

that need updating. We have made comments concerning these areas in
the Notes to Financial Statements section of this report.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended December 31, 2010
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Basis of Accounting
The Grand Council’s policy is to prepare its financial statements on
the cash basis of accounting. Under this method certain revenue and
the related assets are recognized when received rather that when
earned and certain expenses are recognized when paid rather than
when the obligation is incurred. Accordingly, the accompanying
financial statements do not purport to present the current financial
position.
B. Inventories
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost determined by the
first-in, first-out method, of market.
C. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and were depreciated
over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation
was computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting
purposes.
Note 2 – Tax Status
The Grand Council is exempt from federal income tax under Internal
Revenue Code Section 501©, and from state income tax under Alabama
Code Section 40-18-32. An information return is filed each year on
IRS form 990.
Note 3 – Restricted Assets
A Triennial Reserve account is established as a reserve to cover
expenses for specific officers to attend the Triennial Meeting.
During the year there was an increase in the balance of this reserve
account to $ 1,350.00

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON RITUALISTIC WORK
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master, Grand Officers, and
Companions of the Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters of
Alabama:
There has been no request for assistance in conferring the
ritualistic work of the Council by any Council or individual in the
state nor has there been any questions regarding the rital or any
request for clarification of the work. Presumably the ritual is
written clearly enough that no assistance is required. However, it
should be noted that the Committee on Ritualistic Work is at the
disposal of any Council that may have a need for assistance.
The Committee wishes to thank Most Illustrious Master for his
trust and for allowing us the opportunity to serve this Grand
Council in this capacity.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON
FRATERNAL CORRESPONDENCE
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master of the Grand Council of Royal
and Select Masters of Alabama:
This is the report of your Correspondence Committee for this year.
Your Committee on Fraternal Correspondence begs leave to report that
during the year many Companions have exchanged e-mails with the
jurisdictions they are Grand Reps to but no specific information has
been furnished to your committee. One exception was the contact by
Companion Tom Craig and his counterpart did not respond but the
Grand Secretary/Recorder responded. I am sure that many contacts
were made and attempted but no reports were made. This committee
needs all Grand Reps to inform the committee in writing of their
contacts and results.
Your Committee on Fraternal Correspondence thanks the MIGM for the
opportunity of serving this Grand Body and move for adoption of this
report.
Respectfully submitted,

REPORT ON NECROLOGY
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master of the Grand Council of Royal
and Select Masters of Alabama:
Jesus said unto Martha, “I am the resurrection, and the life; he
that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live; and
whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.”St.John11:25-
26.
As Grand Chaplain of the Grand Council of Royal and Select Masters
of Alabama, it becomes my sad duty to report to you that since we
last met, 58 of our beloved Companions have been called by the Great
Architect of the Universe to their Heavenly home. “The memory of the
just is blessed.” It is with a heavy heart, that we bid our
companions a fond farewell. Our prayers go out to the Wives and
Families of these Companions. May we ever keep them in our hearts.
We thank GOD that our Grand line was kept intact this year.
Most Illustrious Grand Master, would you cause this Grand Council to
rise and bow their heads in silence in a moment of silent prayer for
our departed Companions?
In closing may I say that this is not the end, but a brief
interlude, as we step across the Great Divide, to that final moment
when we shall meet again, to abide together forever.
Respectfully submitted,
Ricky C. Kilgore, Grand Chaplain Adopted:

MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE REPORT
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master and Companions of the Grand
Council of Royal and Select Masters of Alabama.
It is the responsibility of this committee to report the status of
the membership relative to the Grand Council of Alabama and the
subordinate Councils. As you may have guessed from your observations
in your local Councils the general trend continues in a downward
slide. This general downward slide in membership is nothing new, as
it has been occurring for the several decades.
As reported each year, there are two main causes that contribute to
the downward trend in our membership numbers. Death and Suspensions
for non-payment of dues are the two factors with the greatest
contribution to our current status. Besides praying for our departed
Companions and their families there is nothing we can do to combat
the membership losses due to death. There are things within our
control that we can work on to reverse the trend of membership loss
from Suspensions, such as working on retention as well as recruiting
new members from our local Blue Lodges.
It is the recommendation of this committee that each local Council
establish a Retention Committee to contact those Companions that are
subject to being suspended and determine the root cause of their
decision to not pay their dues. There are several alternatives open
to addressing the known reasons, whether it is relief for a
Companion that is in distress or for a Companion that does not see
the benefit from his membership in the local Council, we can explain
the opportunities for him to become active and provide the list of
benefits that are provided to others from his support of his local
body.
Our last recommendation of this committee is that we ensure that we
are recruiting Quality into our Fraternity and our local bodies.
There are untold stories where a small group of committed and
dedicated men have been able to overcome untold odds against their
success. If everyone in the group is focused on the goal and
everyone is working toward that goal, there is nothing outside of
their capabilities.

YOUTH COMMITTEE REPORT
To the Most Illustrious Grand Master and Companions of the Grand
Council of Royal and Select Masters of Alabama
The Youth Committee offers their compliments and gratitude to
each member of the Grand Council of Alabama for their monetary
support. It is hoped that each Companion understands that their
monetary support of DeMolay and Rainbow Girls is actually an
investment in the future of Masonry and in Alabama Masonry in
![Page 26: ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-EIGHTH...ROYAL AND SELECT MASTERS Of ALABAMA HELD FEBRUARY 24TH, 25TH, 26TH, 2012 THE HILTON PERIMETER PARK SOUTH BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA PRESIDING 2011-2012 TEDDY](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051805/5ff965ea2f4464125f43d08e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

particular. While money is very important to any organization, the
most important asset is the people and their time.
As the axiom goes, Time marches on and no man can stop time or
regain lost time/opportunities. It is with this in mind that the
Youth Committee asks you to consider an alternative contribution to
our Youth organizations. Think about making a time investment in our
Youth. Go to a meeting and just visit with the young Ladies and
Gentlemen, which will show them that you are interested in their
lives and their progress.
If you will visit once, then you will want to visit again and again.
One day you may even wish to become a part of the Youth
Organizations as an Adult Leader. Being with the youth if good for
us and it is good for them-a true win-win situation.
The observations of the Youth Committee are that our youth do an
outstanding job with their ritual and have the energy to make a
difference in the world. Join with your Youth Committee in showing
them that we fully support them in their future development.
