York Rite Grand Bodies of Oklahoma: Portrait of Daniel Hanttula by Travis Simpkins

2017 Proceedings of the York Rite Grand Bodies of Oklahoma. Portrait of Daniel Hanttula by Travis Simpkins 


     The recently published 2017 Proceedings of the York Rite Grand Bodies of Oklahoma features my portrait of Daniel Hanttula, Most Illustrious Grand Master, in the section pertaining to the Grand Council of Cryptic Masons. His official address, beginning on page 89, is very meaningful and well-written.
