I was "invited/recommended by two uncles to join Freemasonry in Scotland in1955 and gave it serious consideration. I decide to delay entry as at that time I was attending university. After graduation I got married in 1958 and wanted to spend as much time and attention as I could with my wife and over the years with family.

From 1958 to 2006 I was dedicated to my carreer and ended up as a researcher/professor at University of Michigan.

Over the years I lept thinking about Freemasonry including collecting and reading many books and in 2003 I realised I would need something to replace my high activity when I retired in 2006, so the obvious choice was Freemasonry and I joined Plymouth Rock Lodge # 46 in Plymouth Michigan in 2004.

So in my case, joining was a lifetime goal as well as a need for an activity that could fill the vacumm of my earlier carreer. I have never regreted becoming a "Briother", though I now regret waiting so long to join. Me journey has met or exceeded all my expectations.
