 On behalf of the Department Council and the Grand Encampment of Cantons and Encampments of New York State. 

“We wish you, Major Charles Dickinson, PDC, a Great Retirement”. 


With all the years as Department Adjutant for the Patriarchs Militant and Grand Scribe for the Grand Encampment Units. You kept us in line for all the needed paperwork, ordering of supplies, yearly Per Capita forms, yearly reports and help with the yearly journals for all the Combined Conventions. 


So after 30 plus years of dedication to the Order, you can now celebrate
Your Day of Retirement. 


So now get that fishing pole and hit the Rivers and Lakes.
We will miss having you at all our gatherings. 


It’s with great pleasure on behalf of all the Units to present you with this Plaque. 

Given by the Department Council with all the PM’s, LAPM’s, 

and the Grand Encampment with all ENC’s and LEA’s. 


Presented to you by 

Col. Richard G. Kellar, Sr. Department Commander of Patriarch Militant of New York 

and 

Major Paul Gotcsik, the Grand Patriarch of the Grand Encampment of New York
