CANADIAN ELK ÉLANS CANADIEN - Elks of Canada

Brother and Sister Elks and Ladies of the Royal Purple:
I bring Season Greetings and wishes for a prosperous and healthy New Year on behalf of myself and the Provincial
Elks Association. I would hope that all your wishes and dreams may be a lot closer to you as you shared the warmth,
love and friendship with your families and friends at this time of year.
I would ask that each of you take a moment to reflect upon the benefits of what you and your Lodge have done in your
community over this past year and that you give thanks that we, as Elks and Royal Purple, were able to add a small
token of giving to those less fortunate than ourselves. Let us hope that we are able to continue our help and support
where needed, to make life sweeter, people better, and the world happier.
“Together We Can Make a Difference”
Peace be with you always.
Fraternally,
Brother E. H. (Gene) Wood

THANK YOU EVERYONE!
“At this time I would like to thank all Elks and Royal Purple and everyone who sent sympathy cards, emails, and
phone calls for the loss of my best friend and darling wife, Sister Ann Marie Wood, a loss not only to me, but to the
Elks of Canada. Thanks to everyone who made donations to Elks and Royal Purple Fund for Children, Fredericton
SPCA, Children’s Wish Foundation, DECH Palliative Care Unit, DECH Hospital Foundation, Muscular Dystrophy
Association of Canada (NB), Royal Canadian Legion, United Commercial Travelers, and the Canadian Cancer
Society (NB). These donations will be well appreciated by all organizations. Many thanks for putting Ann’s name
in the Golden Book of Memories.
“Let her volunteer work speak for itself. Together we made a difference.”
