To our absent members

The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks has decreed that the first Sunday in December be set apart for Elks to gather and freshen with the dew of recollection the tender blossoms of hope and love entwined about the memory of their departed.  This year we are gathering with family members and the public to include our memorial service with Terrebonne's Bicentennial Celebration.  If you have a family member listed below please contact us at HoumaElks@gmail.com or 985-790-7756 Obedient to our laws, and with hearts attuned in perfect sympathy, we will meet on this Memorial Day to pledge anew Fidelity to the memory of our fellow Members who have entered into the realm of eternity. 

Hope dries our tears, and with eyes of faith may we see those whom we have loved and lost awhile, and who are awaiting the day when the chain of fraternal love shall be re-united forever. Please review the list below as we call the roll of the absent. 

They have passed through the valley of the shadows into the sunlight of eternal morning; the places that have known them shall know them no more, but upon our tablets of love and memory, their names shall endure forever. 

And may the Grace of God enable us to derive from this ceremony renewed confidence that beyond the shadows there is life everlasting.
