Placeholder Image
MONROE - Robert Rufer, Monroe, a member of Monroe Lodge No. 754, Loyal Order of Moose, received the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a member of the fraternity, the Pilgrim Degree of Merit. The ceremony was held May 23 in the House of God at Mooseheart, Ill.

The degree, currently held by less than one-half of one percent of the approximately 800,000 men of the Loyal Order of Moose is generally earned only by members who have given years of "above the call of duty" service to the Loyal Order of Moose and its principle philanthropic endeavors of Mooseheart.

Rufer will receive his blazer at 2 p.m. on Oct. 3 at Monroe Moose Lodge No. 754. Also present will be leaders of the Wisconsin Association.
