Brethren,
The role of the workman has been called and, one Master Mason, Brother William Lance Costello, 32°, has not answered to his name. He has laid down the working tools of life and with them has left that mortal part for which he no longer has use. His labors here below have taught his to divest his heart and conscience of the vices and superfluity of life, thereby fitting his mind as a living stone for that spiritual building, that house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. Strengthened in his labors here by faith in God, and confident of expectation of immortality, he has been granted admission to the Celestial Lodge above. His Brethren mourn the passing of a great man and Mason.
Brother William Lance “Bill” Costello, 32° was born on March 3, 1946 in Cincinnati Ohio, and passed to the Celestial Lodge on August 31, 2019. Brother Costello was a member of Medford Masonic Lodge #103 in Medford, Oregon and obtained the degree of 32°, Master of the Royal Secret in the Medford Valley of Scottish Rite on April 4, 2015. He moved to the Portland area in 2017. No memorial service information has been announced at this time.
