A story in NEWSDAY, the daily Long Island, NY newspaper, dated Monday August 7th, reports on the election of Joseph Quarequio as Grand Treasurer of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York. The article indicates that our RW Brother "Joe Q," as he is popularly known, joined Archimede Roma Lodge No 954 in 1962 and was Master of his Lodge in 1970.
