FLOYDADA – In 1959 Roger Poage stood in the center of the room at the corner of 5th and Mississippi in Floydada as he was installed as a member of Lodge #712.
In 1990 Roger Poage stood in the center of the same room as he was made Worshipful Master (the club president to non-Masons) of the Floydada Lodge.
And on July 7, 2022 Roger Poage once again stood in the center of the room as he was honored by the club for his 60 years of service to the Masons. Poage was praised for his long life and his commitment to the lodge. His honor was delayed for two years due to COVID 19 precautions in the past few yars.
The night was also marked by the installation of Justin Payne as Worshipful Master, Lodge members Tanner Smith and Randell Sims led the ceremonies that also saw Bill Glass and Brent Sanders installed as officers.
