In the event of a member passing away, we gather at our Lodge meeting and call out the member’s name three times. We call in vain, we call in search of an answer. There is no reply for the member has passed away. This is indeed a poignant moment. In the case of Irving Elfie, a member of many decades, there remains a void that cannot readily be filled. Irving was present at all of our meetings and contributed mightily to the on-going strength of Borough Park Lodge 409. Irving remained a rock of financial security and set us on the path to ongoing fiscal security. It was due to Irving’s diligence, that we are able to carry forward the good work we do. In his honor we will re-double our efforts to grow the Lodge, make our presence known in the Community and continue to do our good work.<br />

We will be visiting with the children and their parents and hospital staff to spread some OddFellow Holiday cheer. Most parents don’t have the time or inclination to look for toys. Their concern is their children. We bring a moment of diversion, curiosity, and gets lots of smiles in return. This holiday tradition begun by Sam Gelber and Bernie Sipelstein carries forward the very essence of our creed. Take the time to join us and reap the rewards of a visit to children who would like to be anywhere but where they are. A few moments of your time, makes an enormous difference in their day.
