Elks Memorial
A beautiful Elks Memorial Service was held at 1:30 pm on Sunday, December 4th, 2022 at the Carlinville Elks Lodge #1412. Once more the tolling of 11 strokes revitalized and strengthened our memories. We will remember, each in our own way, the warm smile, the reassuring look, and the comforting touch of those held dear.
The 11 O'clock toast was given by Exalted Ruler, Joseph Young who read the names of the members who had passed during the year.
