Order of the Eastern Star
Grand Chapter of Queensland
I was looking through various sites on Eastern Star Grand Chapters, found yours and then Coolangatta Chapter.
I have many happy memories of my time in Chapter and if Australia was not so far away I would willingly be back.
My Chapter is still busy but membership is down and several have closed.
We are in the midst of one of the coldest winters in years, and have had a spell of minus 40 degrees but it has warmed up to minus 10 today!!
It would be nice to hear from members who know me.
Greetings to all. Jean Hardie. Winnipeg.
Dear Sister Hardie
How very nice to hear from you – and you have really improved my outlook! I’m from Hanna, Alberta (came here 38 years ago) and I do remember the minus 40 spells! It’s good to remember them now as I sit here at my son’s place which is high and dry! We are in flood again in Queensland and my house has had no electricity for almost 48 hours, and has been cut off (it is now on an island) since yesterday. It won’t get flooded, thank goodness, but we can’t get back for another few hours. Well, there’s no point going back until power is restored – maybe by tonight or tomorrow morning.
I have forwarded your message to Sister Enid Roberts, another Queensland import – from Western Australia – who is the only member in Coolangatta with email.
Say “hello” to Baldur and Maisie Johnson for me, and to Sister Sally Burch from Brandon if you see her. She’s my cousin.
