Centennial Planning

[bman]

Hello, I am from Phi Lambda at St Joes. The marker is great idea. As far as Mason's grave goes, his family is also buried alongside of him. We go there every semester. I don't know how Penn would feel about it. Their current Greek Advisor is a Lambda Chi as well. I also don't know about the chapter there. They also have a lot of historical stuff and an awsome brand new house. But if I can be any help, I have so friends in state government from working for a state rep for a while so let me know if there is something you think you need.

Also we are in the process of planning our own anniversary celebration, but would like to include a lot of the closer zetas, and where potentially hoping to turn it into the Philadelphia region celebration, and it is also our 30th. IF anyone has ideas to get money for that, get support from nationals and make it happen. Thanks

OK, I have but a single, simple question: Where IS Mason buried / interred / entombed / in-urned?

Mason is buried on the University Of Penn's Campus. It is on Woodland ave near the Veterinary Hospital.

Brother John,

If you take a look at the Mason article in the June, 2006 issue of the C&C you will find a Woodlands Cemetery reference toward the end of the article. Click on it and you get a nice arial view of the cemetery. You also get their address and phone number.

I did not know that Woodlands is part of the University. I thought it was a public cemetery.

I hope this helps.

Yours in ZAX,

It appears that the cemetery is adjacent to the college; research also suggests that it may be a affiliated with some sort of Philadelphia area preservation society.

It is right next to Penn, we happened upon the people who are the preservation people during one of our visits, and they love to have information about famous people buried there. I do have a phone number for the society if anyone should need it.

Great, give us a link if you can or a name!

Heck, we found Coles sight and pictures taken!


But when you do the search on G C, you will find, it took a lot of LXA Brothers from all over the country to do it!

You are talking with all of them on this site!

Now throw us something! Pix would work!
