Hello nopardons!
Humility is the mark of greatness.
I'm not surprised(although I didn't know he was a Mason) that Ford had a spiritual connection.
People generally feel the loss after such souls depart.
He will be missed.
Yes, President Ford was the last President, thus far, who was a Mason. If you ever read a thread on FR ( it usually starts out as some anti-Masonic thing ), you WILL find FR's Masons and those from Masonic families posting who was/is a Mason and President Ford is always on that list.
He was a very good man and an able president, who will be missed by more than just his immediate family.
