To say that these photos make me proud is a complete understatement. I want to thank illustrious Sir Lou (Sal) Miranda for requesting that Alyssa Tudor attend and speak at the Potentates Ball last week. And illustrious Darrell (popo) Mandrel for being her Es**rt. To all the Nobles and ladies who made her feel so special. My only regret is I missed it. I’m not sure how anyone who sees this page doesn’t know who she is, but for information purposes she is our adopted daughter of the Mounted Patrol. A former shrine patient and a testament to what we as Shriners do. As well as a testament to never letting life dictate how you act, live or represent. She inspires me always and I see her inspire others. I tell her and her mother always she is my hero. Seeing her in the grand entry was way beyond cool. Thank you again Nobles and ladies for showing why we do what we do. God bless you. And it’s an honor to serve with each and every one of you.
