But, in summary, two young men, Brothers Frank Murphy and L.V. Dickson happened to meet on a dreary PNW day in Brother Dickson’s drugstore in the Montavilla neighborhood. Both were young Masons, and both were excited about learning the secrets of Masonry and the Brotherhood that can be found within those secrets. They found some other experienced Masons, some who had barely settled in Oregon, but all who wished to find a Lodge in that neighborhood. Parkrose Lodge was founded by one of the Past Masters of East Gate, WB James Van Horn, along with a number of the East Gate members. When East Gate signed the paperwork for the dispensation it was known they would lose members to the new Lodge (and others they would support), but also that they were helping to spread the joy of Masonry in Outer East Portland. More of Parkrose’s history can be found here
