Deputy Grand Master, 2005
BIOGRAPHY
From TROWEL, Winter/Spring 2005, Page 4:
He’s probably best known as the long-time recorder for the Aleppo Temple Shrine, but Rt. Wor. Harvey J. Waugh has another title to add to his resume. Most Wor. Jeffrey Black Hodgdon named Bro. Waugh to be Deputy Grand Master during the Grand Master’s first term. It’s been a big year for Bro. Waugh, who got his start in the Fraternity as a member of Melrose Chapter, Order of DeMolay. He follows both the Red Sox and Patriots — two championships and an opportunity to serve Grand Lodge.
While an active member of the Order of DeMolay, our Deputy Grand Master served as Master councilor for his chapter. He was also awarded the Degree of Chevalier, and the Legion of Honor, the highest honor that can be conferred by the International Supreme Council.
He is also a member of Wyoming Lodge, where he served as Master, and Cawnacome Sunshine Lodge.
Rt. Wor. Bro. Waugh has worked for Aleppo Temple since 1968, making him well known to Shriners throughout the state. Before that, he served in the U.S. Navy, being commissioned an Ensign in 1964. While in the Navy, he served as a gunnery officer aboard the USS Henry County, an LST. He also served as a barracks officer at Pearl Harbor, and the Commander of the Naval Honor Guard, representing the Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific. While serving with the Naval Honor Guard, he had the honor of receiving the President of the United States, Lyndon B. Johnson.
In Grand Lodge, Bro. Waugh has served as the Grand Representative from the Grand Lodge of Spain, near the Grand Lodge of Massachusetts.
In the Shrine, he is an Emeritus Representative to the Imperial Council, where he served as Chairman of the Election and Tellers Committee. He is also an Emeritus Member of the Burns Hospital board of governors, and a member of the Royal Order of Jesters.
Rt. Wor. Bro. Waugh is also active in both Scottish and York Rite. In the York Rite, he is a member of St. Paul’s Chapter, Melrose Council, Boston Commandery, and St. Bernard Commandery. In Scottish Rite, he is a member of Boston Lafayette Lodge of Perfection; Giles F. Yates Council, Princes of Jerusalem, where he served as Sovereign Prince; Mount Olivet Chapter of Rose Croix; and Massachusetts Consistory. In 1991, Bro. Waugh was elevated to the 33rd degree of the Scottish Rite, in ceremonies in Indianapolis.
Rt. Wor. Waugh resides in Lynnfield with his wife, Margaret. He is the father of two daughters, Kimberly, who is a pediatric nurse at Massachusetts General Hospital; and Jennifer, a sales account manager for MTV Networks in Los Angeles.
