| 2011 Recipient |
"Dad" Eric B. Blew - Allentown Chapter |
 |
"Dad" Eric Blew has been involved with Allentown Chapter since the early 1980's. He has served in serveral capacities with DeMolay, both on the Chapter and State level. He is also a well known member of the Masonic Community where he is a Past Master of Jordan Martin Lodge No. 673. In 1987 he served as Senior Grand Deacon under then Grand Master Stenberg. "Dad" Blew was honored with this award for one simple reason; he gets it! "Dad" Blew understands the most basic points of the DeMolay program and continues to apply them in his home Chapter. Allentown would certainly not be the Chapter it is today without his leadership. |
