This fundraiser is to help Tristan Loew, son <strong>of</strong> Wendy and Senior Grand Deacon Franklin J. Struble,<br />

and his family cover the expenses incurred after he was diagnosed with advanced CML Leukemia.<br />

After years <strong>of</strong> incorrect diagnosis it was discovered that Tristan’s spleen was 5 times its normal<br />

size and the Leukemia was discovered. Tristan had been laid <strong>of</strong>f from work and was uninsured<br />

the first month <strong>of</strong> treatment and hospital intensive care was costly and beyond the ability <strong>of</strong> the<br />

family to cope. This fundraiser is to help them with those expenses. Tristan has since been able to<br />

obtain insurance.<br />

There will be a drawing for a Mathews Bow, Go Cart and<br />

other items.<br />

Donations <strong>of</strong> items for the drawings and silent auction<br />

are still being sought.<br />

Thanks to the Brothers <strong>of</strong> Blue Hills Lodge who donated the use <strong>of</strong> the Lodge Building<br />

and the Brothers <strong>of</strong> Valley Lodge No. 60 for their continued support!<br />

Leadership is a family affair in River Falls<br />

How many <strong>Masonic</strong> families can claim three brothers as Past Masters<br />

<strong>of</strong> a lodge? It might be nice to find out if any family in the state <strong>of</strong> <strong>Wisconsin</strong><br />

can make that claim. The H<strong>of</strong>fman family <strong>of</strong> River Falls has just<br />

that distinction. Their family alone has produced three Masters <strong>of</strong> River<br />

Falls Lodge No. 109. Pictured (from left ): Dave H<strong>of</strong>fman, current Master<br />

<strong>of</strong> the River Falls Lodge; Darl H<strong>of</strong>fman, the boys’ father; Dan H<strong>of</strong>fman<br />

and Doug H<strong>of</strong>fman, both Past Masters.<br />
