Bill:

Answering a msg of <Friday July 08 1994>, from Bill Hickey to Freemasonry:

I knew a fellow named Bill Hickey who was a member of the craft and had related
to me that he had received his degrees in England(?) and not in the US.  I
believe he also related the fact he was a York Rite Mason, a year or two before
I became a Master Mason.

I met this fellow at work in the Washington, DC area, and I recall the unusual
lapel pin he had that was different than those I saw from my Dad and other
friends I knew from the craft here in the US.

This Bill, who I had met at this time, was one of those people you could almost
identify without asking, as a member of the craft, because he was one who had a
vibrant, people-engaging personality that kind of signalled he was a special
person.  I  wasn't as surprised as I should've been when I found out he was a
Mason.  I believe Scotland was more correct than England, and I believe he was
in the Navy (Naval Reserve?) at the time.  I recall he was into Amateur Radio,
and knew a lot about Personal Computers as well.  His wife worked for
Westinghouse at the time I believe.

Are you by chance this same fellow?

-Tom-
