Dear Brethren,

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of V.W. Bro. Don Osborne, who passed to the Grand Lodge Above this morning, Sunday, March 29, 2026.

Many of you had the opportunity to visit Don in recent days. We know those visits meant a great deal to him, and he spoke warmly and in appreciation of the brethren who came to see him.

At this time, there are no details available regarding the arrangement of a service. However, we will share further information with the membership as soon as it becomes available.

On behalf of Bytown Lodge, we extend our sincere condolences to Rose and the Osborne family. A card will be sent from the Lodge.
