BELTON, Texas Bill Creech took just three months to initiate as a freemason back in 1955. 65 years later, the Grand Lodge of Texas honored him with a pin and award to show his dedication. I did enjoy it, yes I have, yes I did, he said.
He was joined by friends, family, and other members of the masonic lodge for the special celebration.
Creech was a trooper on the beaches on Normandy and also survived the Battle of the Bulge. He has held many different positions as a freemason and the honor is not one that many members receive.
