That said, be sure to make arrangements for its "disposal" at the time of your death. Decide whether you want to leave that pin to the chapter involved, or to your National.

Too many greeks don't have suitable arrangements in their wills, and that's how the pins end up on ebay!
YES, YES

Kudos to you for getting it especially if it's from a founding member of a chapter. We donate the ones we can get back to our Ih but I am a firm believer that it's SO much better for a member to wear it (who obviously cares about it) rather than for it to sit in a box somewhere.

Contact the chapter first! They may not care and it would just end up in a box.

Wear it with pride!

Fraternally,
