R. W. Bro. Rick Cadotte Bio

I am Past Master of St. Mark’s Lodge No. 94 in St. Thomas District, affiliated with Moffat Lodge No. 399 in London East District, and a Charter Member and the second Worshipful Master of Templum Lucis Lodge No. 747 – A Traditional Observance Lodge, in South Huron District. Elected Grand Junior Warden in 2014 where my travels took me from Windsor to Kingston to Ottawa and a few places on the south shore of Lake Huron. I earned my “FCF” by completing the Masonic Arts & Sciences course offered by College of Freemasonry in 2009 and completed the Past Master’s Course shortly thereafter.  I began my time on the College of Freemasonry Committee in 2010 by serving as the Assistant Administrator for 2 years and the following 6 years as the Administrator/Team Leader. During this time, I have been in contact with over 1200 students of all levels of education and rank, and to this day I enjoy this contact immensely. Learning from them is a daily activity for me.
