(I am NOT one of them.) [/quote] Thank you. Good grammar/spelling is important to me. I appreciate the correction. [/quote]

My new husband’s late father was a 32nd degree Free Mason. My husband doesn’t know much about the activities his father was involved in..just that he recalls a lot of secrecy surrounding his father. Private things he didn’t divulge to him or his mother. A special chest he was not allowed to touch that contained private things. And as he grew into a teenager, he knew his father was not always honest with his mom as to his where-abouts. There were suspicions Of extra-marital affairs and one time, his parents separated for over a year over a fight they had. He would still see his dad on the weekends, but his parents were separated during that time.
Fast Forward..my husband blamed his parents troubles on the Free Masons. And wants nothing to do with them. They even tried very hard to recruit him when he filled out a questionnaire for joining a MC club. One of the questions was about his heritage in Free Masonry. When they found out his father was a 32nd. Degree, they really pressured him to join. So much so that he decided he didn’t want to join that club after all.
I guess my question is this. Is my husband possibly even myself being watched? Looked after in a sense? Promotions have always come easy to him. He’s a smart man in his field. 30 years as a fire fighter. He’s retired now but teaching fire safety classes in his retirement. Do the Masons look after the children of their deceased high degree members? Is there anything I need to know as his wife? Even his mother, who is still alive, receives phone calls and mail checking in on her? She too wants nothing to do with them and blames her marital problems on them.
How far of an outreach is the arm of the Masons for deceased higher degree members? Is there anything I ought to know?
Thank you for any and all info. And feel free to pm me if you’re a member of course.
