While in high school I joined the Nebraska Army National Guard.  My father and I joined St. John Lodge No. 25 in Omaha on September 12, 1961, and were raised to the degree of a Master Mason on December 28, 1961.  I am currently a member and Chaplain of Capitol Lodge #3 in Omaha.  I joined the Scottish Rite in Omaha on May 2, 1963.  My wife and I joined Eastern Star March 15, 1968, at Ord, Nebraska where I was serving my first pastorate.  We are currently members of Luna Chapter #169 in Elkhorn, Nebraska.

I joined Tangier Shrine in 1989, where I served as Chaplain for a number of years, and have been a member of the Greeters serving as its Director in 2002.  More recently I was received into York Rite in Omaha, serving as High Priest of Omaha Chapter #1 Royal Arch Masons in 2014.  I am also a member of Omaha Council #1, and Mt.
