The Cornerstone Award

The Cornerstone Award can be awarded to a companion of The Grand Royal Arch Chapter of Texas they feel is worthy of such a high honor. A companion must have rendered great service to the Chapter, beyond the normal call of service and duty, promotes his Chapter and Cryptic Masonry at every opportunity and freely gives of his talents, time and efforts without asking to do so. The Cornerstone Award is awarded only one per year.

It is these basic ideals and many more that the following companions have been selected to receive the Cornerstone Award.
