Linda Fisher, Worthy Matron

I served as Mannford's WM for the first time in 1989, then 1999, again in 2000 and here I go one more time. In 1989 my mother was Electa and this year my daughter Betty is serving a Adah. I was District Deputy three years, Grand Lecturer of Oklahoma in 1994. Sister Debbie Beard and the late Brother Ray K. Babb Jr. were Worthy Grand Matron and Worthy Grand Patron that year. I was appointed Grand Representative of Quebec in Jan. 2003. This is my second year to serve on the Board of Examiners. If you have any questions about Oklahoma or need information about our Grand Chapter I will be glad to help. I may not know the answer but I know where I can find it. Or if you just wish to know an Oklahoma Sister e-mail me.

The Initation was done by the Oklahoma Grand Officers, 'The Stars and Stripes of 94' and such good times I have had with that group during the past 15 years. We are now a three STAR family Linda, our daughter Betty and me. I also want to tell you that Mannford Chapter has the BEST COOKS IN THE WORLD!

Nancy Parker, Mannford's Organist

I became a member of Broken Arrow Chapter in 1981, and served as Worthy Matron in 1986. Shortly after our installation in January, my husband’s company downsized and he took a position in Houston. I remained in Broken Arrow and finished the year as WM, then moving in March 1987.

While in Houston, I became a dual member of Bellaire Chapter where I served as Worthy Matron in 1990 & 1994. I had several Grand Chapter committee appointments, the most fun of which was Grand Page to Judith VanHorn, Grand Warder in 1993-1994

We moved back to Tulsa in 1998, and I discontinued my dual membership with Bellaire. I was honored to be appointed District Deputy #12 by Sister Jean Hall in 2000. This is when I became acquainted with and developed a great love for the Sisters & Brothers of Mannford Chapter. Jim & I took dual membership in 2001 and I have been their organist ever since.

I served Broken Arrow as Secretary in 2000-2003, and was elected Conductress in 2004, preparing to be Worthy Matron for 2005-2006 as a Clown Cadet – exactly 20 years since my first term as Worthy Matron of Broken Arrow Chapter.

Other Grand Chapter appointments have been DD #1 in 2002, and Grand Representative of Scotland in 2003-2005. I attended the Supreme Grand Chapter of Scotland in April 2003 with our beloved Dorothy Dewing who was MWGM at the time.

It was my distinct privilege and honor to be Grand Lecturer for our Grand Chapter. We were called the “Dreamweavers” with Carolyn Hacker as PGM, and Dale Southerland as PGP.

        I am active in other Masonic Orders, currently serving as Supreme Watchman of Shepherds, in the White Shrine of Jerusalem. It will be a great pleasure for our Supreme Shrine Session to be held in Tulsa, May 2007, when I am in the Supreme East with Judy Inukai, who will be the Supreme Worthy High Priestess.
       I served as Royal Patron of Will Clark-Tulsa Court #7 and was privileged to be appointed Grand Warder in 2003. I am a Past Master of Pilgrim-Rock Lodge #522 in Tulsa.
     Some day soon, I anticipate being able to feel the wind in my hair (or under my helmet) as I ride down the road on my 1200 Sportster. In my other spare time, I enjoy woodworking, racquetball and putzing around the house.
