In 1959 W. Bro. Floyd Hamilton was honored with the Grand Lodge appointment of District Deputy Grand Master of 27th Masonic District. During his term as District Deputy the annual Christmas Party for residents and employees of the Florida Masonic Home in St. Petersburg Florida was conceived. This annual affair, acknowledged as the highlight of the year at the Home, by both recipients and Advisory Board, was a conception of our own Bro. I. A. Sterling. The dimensions of this project quickly involved all Lodges of this District and has provided a cohesiveness - over the years - within the Lodges of the District.
Brother Hamilton has many accomplishments and credits in the York Rite Bodies, Order of Eastern Star, and Grand Lodge Committees.
