REPORT OF THE DEPUTY GRAND MASTERTo the Grand Lodge:Brethren,The Deputy Grand Master’s Town Hall Meetings have been well receivedby the Brethren and are of great value. They have created an important,two-way communication conduit that allows information to be effectivelytransmitted to the Brethren of this jurisdiction. These meetings wereconducted with a spirit of honesty and transparency. Travelling throughoutthe jurisdiction to conduct Town Hall Meetings might seem like a lot of work,but the effort yielded great results!It is interesting to note that the applications for the new 2016-2018 DistrictDeputy Grand Master [DDGM] and Grand Lodge Staff Officer Selecteeswere distributed and appointed much earlier than in recent times. Wepersonally contacted each of the District Deputy Grand Master and GrandLodge Staff Officer Selectees by telephone and extended an invitation forthem to “twin up” and apprentice behind the existing District leadershipteams. I extend my thanks to the 2014-2016 District Teams for allowingthe new leaders to get a “jump start” in their District. The District DeputyGrand Master and Grand Lodge Staff Officer Selectees were advised that thisperiod is a time of preparation and planning and much would be required ofthem during the next term.With the approval of Grand Master Thomas, we were able to launch thenew NorthStar Project throughout the jurisdiction. As of this report, we wereable to train approximately 425 Success Coaches, with more on the way.Hopefully, with each DDGM appointing a District Umbrella Chairman;two Success Coaches firmly embedded in each Lodge, and with the GrandLodge Staff Officer supervising the implementation of the LSOME Program,we just might have the opportunity to finally break the nonproductive“revolving door” membership cycle we are currently experiencing. TheWebsite Membership Referral System has transmitted 654 prospectivemembership leads to the District Deputy Grand Masters and another 277 tosister jurisdictions.This second year for the Deputy Grand Master has been a time to set upthe new Grand Lodge Masonic Trestle Board which includes MembershipDevelopment, Redistricting, Reshaping and making our Lodges stronger andmore robust. We are pleased to note that many of the upcoming Grand Lodgeinitiatives are “right on target” with national trends and are confident that weare promoting worthwhile and useful programs for the future benefit of theCraft. We wish to thank Chairman R W Martin L. Kanter and the DeputyGrand Master’s Advisory Committee for their many hours of thought andcommitment in preparing for the next few years. Detailed reports concerningthese topics can be found elsewhere.This year, we were able to participate in the Conference of Grand Mastersof North America [CGMNA] which was held in Madison, Wisconsin. It is1

important to note that these conferences between Grand Lodges have provento be of great value. This venue allows networking with other Grand Lodgeswhere each Grand Lodge can freely share common problems, trends andcompare the results of programs and initiatives.As this term comes to a close, Lady Carla and I wish to express oursincerest gratitude to Grand Master William J. Thomas and Lady Susan fortheir friendship, guidance and assistance, especially in the areas of GrandLodge administration and future planning. A Grand Master is, in reality,the CEO of a major corporation, and much skill, effort and experience isrequired to be an effective leader at this level. We genuinely appreciate yourleadership skill, Grand Master Thomas, and thank you for your service tothe Craft!The summary of the travels of the Deputy Grand Master are includedat the conclusion of this report. During our many travels we were alwaysextended the hand of hospitality, friendship and brotherly love. We are trulyblessed to have the opportunity of serving YOU in our beloved Craft!Sincerely and fraternally,Jeffrey M.

I cannot tellyou all enough what a great honor and privilege it has been to serve you asyour Grand Treasurer. In my travels around the state, I’ve witnessed manygreat works that Lodges and Districts are performing. I would like to thankthe members of all of them for graciously accepting me into their homes.Much work has been done to curtail unnecessary spending at all levels ofGrand Lodge. Reductions have been seen at not only the Committee levelsbut each Brother of the Grand Line, right up to the Grand Master, has madea conscious effort to reduce their overall spending. Travel and overnightstays have been closely monitored and reviewed to determine the necessity.All Committees have been tasked similarly by the Grand Master to alsoexamine the way they do business and to be fiscally responsible as well.The effort is ongoing and will no doubt be carried into the next budget year.There is more to the job of the Grand Treasurer than meets the eye. Notonly does the Grand Treasurer need to evaluate and review all expensespresented for payment by Grand Lodge, but the incumbent is also assignedas a member of many Committees which include financial and budgetaryrelated issues. As a member of the Finance Committee, the GrandTreasurer should not only be a member but should have some input asto the expenses for the upcoming budget. More review and analyses areneeded to better prepare for the spending for the years to come. In mycapacity as a member of the Finance Committee and with an extensivebackground in finance, I am seldom asked for my input.Additionally, the Masonic Brotherhood Foundation, Inc., needs attentionas well. I expressed to the members of the Committee that they shouldmeet more regularly. Currently, there are two meetings each year heldfour months apart. I feel that the assets they are entrusted with requiremore attention. Quarterly meetings should be held to review the activityof the previous quarter. Also, they should be doing their due diligence byinterviewing other investment professionals. Currently, the investmentadvisor is a Brother, which poses conflict of interest issues and also limitsthe Committee’s ability to hold the advisor accountable for the performanceof the overall portfolio. The members of the Committee have a fiduciaryresponsibility to you, my Brothers, and I have suggested that they interviewoutside investment professionals to manage our funds. My concerns have3

fallen on deaf ears and the business as usual attitude prevails. My Brothers,the current economic and fiscal climate we are in dictates that we be prudentin the handling of all of the funds of Grand Lodge.Another concern I have is that since taking office, I endeavored to determinethe salaries of all the employees of Grand Lodge. On every financial statementof Grand Lodge, the salaries are listed in two categories: Executive andOther. I have been stonewalled in every attempt to uncover this information.According to the Constitutions, the Grand Treasurer is responsible for allthe approved budgeted items of Grand Lodge. Part of that includes thesalaries of the employees. To date, I have not signed one check for any of theemployees of Grand Lodge. However, I have signed checks for their benefitsand retirement. My question here is why can’t we know what the salaries are ofthe people we employee?I do need to recognize the efforts of the staff at Grand Lodge performing theday to day finance and budget operations. The Director of Finance, Mrs. KlaraBolotovsky, and her staff work tirelessly to handle the many intricacies of thebudget of Grand Lodge. I am in contact with her on a regular basis and havedone my best to assist her in her arduous task. Additionally, R W RichardW. Bateman is another valued member of the Grand Lodge administrativesuite. His knowledge and commitment in delivering the most accurateinformation is tantamount to the success of Grand Lodge. So, I thank Mrs.Bolotovsky and R W Bateman for all their assistance and guidance during mytenure as your Grand Treasurer.But there is one person who stands alone when it comes to assisting theGrand Treasurer in keeping an eye on the finances of Grand Lodge. My sincerethanks and appreciation goes to the Grand Secretary, R W Paul M. Rosen.R W Rosen is a tremendous asset in the Executive suite of Grand Lodge. Ithank you Brother Rosen for all your assistance, and I truly enjoyed our timetogether as Secretary and Treasurer.As I conclude my time with you as your Grand Treasurer, my Brothers,I again want to thank each one of you for entrusting me with the incrediblyimportant job of guarding the treasury. I have enjoyed every minute of thisawesome journey and look forward to strengthening those fraternal bondswith so many across the state. My Brothers, I pride myself on always doingnot only the best I can do but doing the right thing for all. I can only think ofone way to thank each of you for your confidence and trust in me, and that is tosay that you all put the trust in me and I did the best I could to serve you.M W Grand Master, I make a motion that this report be read in full andspread across the minutes of this communication of Grand Lodge.May God bless each of you.May He watch over our military men and women wherever so dispersedaround the globe and bring them safely home.May He bless this great fraternity of ours.And may God bless the United States of America.Thank you.Respectfully and Fraternally submitted,Charles Catapano, Grand Treasurer4

REPORT OF THE GRAND SECRETARYTo the Grand Lodge:Most Worshipful Grand Master, Right Worshipful Deputy Grand Masterand my Brothers all:This being the 235th Annual Communication of Grand Lodge, it is withgreat pride that I come before this august body for the second time as yourGrand Secretary to report on the Office of the Grand Secretary and its stafffor the 2015 to 2016 term of my office.Brethren, we have a staff of men and women who work at the GrandSecretary’s Office and are dedicated to serving each and every Brother inthis great Jurisdiction of ours. I am especially proud of the way they havesupported me, the third Grand Secretary with whom they have had to workin the last three years. They have accepted the changes I have sought to makein the way the office functions so that it is user-friendly. In effect, you are ourcustomers and deserve to be treated with respect and in a courteous manner.The Office of the Grand Secretary strives to make every project for whichwe are responsible accurate and completed without mistakes and in a timelymanner. I am proud to state that my entire staff works to get their assignmentsdone in a manner which will bring credit to the Office of the GrandSecretary and this Grand Lodge. I can only hope that as we move in thisdirection that you all feel that you are being well-represented by the Office ofthe Grand Secretary.I am constantly amazed by the number of Brothers who call and aresurprised when I answer my phone personally or call them back myself. Ifyou call me, you expect to talk to me, so it should not be a surprise when youget a call from me. You consider me and the Office of the Grand Secretary asa resource for the answers to your Masonic questions, therefore, my Officeand I should be directly available to you to give you those answers. I haveattempted to have myself and my staff provide you with the solution toyour problems within 2 days of your request. Usually, it does not take thatlong to provide the solution to your requests or answer to your problems.To those of you who have visited the Office of the Grand Secretary, youknow that in an attempt to help the Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Home,we have moved much of our staff off the eighteenth floor and onto thefifteenth floor. This has contracted the footprint of the Grand Secretary’soffice and will enable the Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Home to rentthat more valuable real estate on the eighteenth floor at a substantially higherrate to benefit the members of this Great Grand Lodge. In connection withthat move, we have cleaned out several storage areas and sold much of theinventory that we found. Those sales have resulted in the recapture of receiptsof 1,882.00 from stale and outdated stored items.Lodge Secretaries should now be familiar with and using the MORIregistration system. That system holds the records of the Craft fromapproximately 1980 forward. The Trustees of the Masonic Hall and Home,to expedite our move from the 18th floor, helped the Office of the GrandSecretary plan for and then paid for the digitization of the remainder ofthe Card Catalogue records maintained by the Grand Secretary’s office.This old-fashioned Card Catalogue system held records from around5

1900. With their digitization, we can now electronically access recordsfrom roughly 1900 to the current date. Those historic records amount towell over 600,000 individual cards containing the Masonic records of over acentury of past members of the Craft.The Chancellor Robert R Livingston Masonic Library has diligently digitizedthe Lodge Historical Files, making it conveniently possible for Lodges toexercise their right and ability to retrieve those Files and to preserve for historicpurposes the originals. You were advised that you should pick up those records.As a result of the consolidation and reorganization of the records of the GrandSecretary’s Office, we have recaptured significant storage areas and thoserecords are now preserved for the Lodges in a safe and secure location. OurLodges are encouraged to take possession of those records, otherwise, theyshall remain securely saved by the Office of the Grand Secretary.A big thank you goes to the Departmental Directors and their staffs, ready toserve your needs and answer your questions. They are as follows:Accounting Department: Mrs. Klara Bolotovsky, Director of Finance,who works together with Ms. Jessica Cornejo and Miss Carol YilingCui, who share their time between Lodge Services and Bookkeeping;Ms. Lois A. Romano, Masonic Brotherhood Department and CustomerServices; Mr. David Noonan, Registry Department Services and Mrs.Jacqueline Florencio, Lodge Services and Masonic Brotherhood.Executive Office: R\W\Richard W. Bateman, General Manager, GrandPursuivant, and Assistant Grand Secretary, and the dedicated Administrativestaff, with Mr. Eric Cook, Administrative Assistant, Mr. David Cabral,Graphic Arts Specialist, Ms. Bridget H. Primo, Receptionist, and Ms. Rose L.Flanagan, P/T Secretary to the Grand Secretary.Chancellor Robert R Livingston Masonic Library of Grand Lodge: Bynow, you should all know that R\W\Thomas M. Savini, Director, had resignedin August of 2015, and his capable staff has filled in during the remainderof the year that we were without a Director or Librarian. That absence hascaused the Office of the Grand Secretary to become a more visible presencein the Library working with the Library Staff. That staff includes Ms.Catherine M. Walter, Curator and Editor of the Grand Lodge Proceedings, Ms.Georgia Hershfeld, P/T Cataloguer, Mrs. Roseann M. Huschle, Receptionist,and Brother Matthew J. Lentz, Archivist. Their dedication has allowed theLibrary to remain open with only the loss of the evening session one day aweek. The Museum artifacts contained in our collection belong to the GrandLodge. The Grand Secretary has been the officer who holds them on behalf ofthe Grand Lodge while they are housed in the Library. The Grand Secretarynow requests that the Grand Lodge approve this arrangement that has beenthe operational methodology for the Museum collection housed in the Library.Going forward, it has been decided to divide the Masonic Library into twoareas of responsibility: the Museum Collection, overseen by the Curator,and the Library Book Collection overseen by a Librarian. As I preparethis report, the Trustees of the Chancellor Robert R Livingston MasonicLibrary are seeking to hire a well-qualified Librarian to fill this new position.6

I must express a very special thanks to R W Richard W. Bateman,Assistant Grand Secretary, who has served this Grand Lodge for over twentyfive (25) years. Without his knowledge and administrative skills, we wouldfind it difficult to function on an everyday basis. Thus, it would make itimpossible to operate our Grand Lodge without the efficiency and dedicationthat he and these fine people bring to the job.An additional cost savings to Grand Lodge was realized with the transferof the full time Mail Room Clerk from the Grand Lodge staff onto the staff ofTrustees of the Masonic Hall and Home, along with all of the mail processingequipment. .I am happy to inform this Grand Lodge that the 2013 and 2014Proceedings of the Grand Lodge of the State of New York have beenprinted and also placed upon CDs and have been distributed. Specialthanks go to Ms. Catherine M. Walter who has worked so hard to bring theProceedings up-to-date at the expense of her obligations as Curator. With hertremendous effort, Ms. Catherine M. Walter produces the accurate journalsof what takes place at each of the Grand Lodge of New York’s AnnualCommunications. It is through her efforts that the Office of the Grand Secretaryhas been able to complete one of its most important Constitutional duties ofthe Office of the Grand Secretary.More amazing is that she has also completed the 2015 Proceedings, whichhas been sent to the printer for printing and distribution. I am therefore happyto report that the Office of the Grand Secretary, for the first time in anyone’smemory, is now current in the production of the record of our Proceedingswhich have been as many as 6 years behind in their production. Along withthe printed Proceedings, your Grand Secretary’s Office has continued to savea significant amount of money by having the Proceedings reproduced as acompact disc for distribution to every Lodge’s Secretary for its records, andlimiting the number of hard copies produced. This saves on both printing andmailing costs. In an effort to save even more expense, and for the sake ofexpediency in the future, access will be made available by downloading theproceedings from the Grand Lodge Website should a Brother wish to have acopy of the Proceedings.Once again, we will use our new Electronic-age Balloting System. Thisis especially time saving because of the number of candidates we haverunning for office at this Grand Lodge Session. It will also enable us to voteon the many changes to either our Constitutions or our Rules of Order thatwill be placed before you for your consideration this year. We sincerelythank the Chairman of the Technology Committee, R W Edward A.Chiani, for all his work and efforts that make this possible. I also thank theTrustees of the Masonic Hall and Home who have supplied all of the votingequipment.Included in this Report, you will find the statistics of our membership, whichcontinues to decline, even though an effort has been made to raise 987 newBrothers this year, plus the 266 who have been Restored and the 272 whohave Affiliated.7

During the year we have had a number of Lodges that have merged to form asuccessor Lodge that is stronger and more vibrant than either of the individualLodges were before their Merger. A number of Lodges have either lost orSurrendered their Charters. All are reminded that if your Lodge is contemplatingthe eventual Surrender of your Charter, it is a Masonic offense to dispose ofyour assets, even for a noble or charitable purpose in contemplation of closingyour Lodge. The property rightfully should be transferred to the Trustees of theMasonic Hall and Home for them to use for the benefit of distressed worthyMaster Masons, their Widows and Orphans. It goes to help support them in ourAssisted Living Community which otherwise does not cover the cost of theirexpenses because of the loss of funding from the State of New York. This useof Lodge funds for this purpose is one of the Obligations we all assumed whenwe became Masons, and the thought of not allowing the Lodge funds to go tocomply with this Obligation should be abhorrent to all Masons. The Charter ofThe Lodge of United Services 1118, which had previously been Suspended, hasnow been Forfeited, as determined by a Masonic Trial Commission in 2016.Brethren, many elderly Brothers have been dropped for non-payment of dues.We are initiating, passing and raising more Brothers then we are losing throughdeath. If we reduce the number leaving us by reason of non-payment of dueswe will reverse the slide in membership and begin to grow again. Every Lodgemust seek to reduce the loss of longtime, elderly members who are unaffiliatingor being dropped for non-payment of their dues. We must try and see how wecan help our senior Brothers who have dedicated their lives to support this Craft.In connection with this philosophy, we once again travelled to visit our Brothersnow residing as permanent residents or have a snowbird residence in Florida. Wehad luncheons in Sarasota, Tampa and Palm Beach Gardens. Next year, we willplan to hold a luncheon in a community known as The Villages as well. We usethese opportunities to visit with these Brothers so that they retain a connectionwith New York and their Grand Master. The Grand Chapter of the Order of theEastern Star joins us annually in this effort. We also present Citations for yearsof Service to the Craft. It is hoped that through these visits, we will retain theseBrothers. We have processed many requests by these Brothers to affiliate withFlorida Lodges, thus continuing their dedication to our Craft.We have been lucky enough to have the Masonic Medical Research Laboratoryfund the issuing of 50-Year Aprons and the Trustees of the Masonic Hall andHome fund the 60 and, yes, even 70-Year Aprons. We make these Brothershappy and renew their dedication to the Craft when they are presented withthese honors by our Grand Master.My Brothers all, it has been an honor and a pleasure to have been able to serveyou, our Grand Master, and this Administration and Grand Lodge, and I hopeto continue to serve you in that capacity in the future. We have accomplishedmany goals, thanks to the dedication and hard work by all of you and especiallyby the staff of the Grand Secretary’s Office.Respectfully submitted,Paul M. Rosen, Grand Secretary9
