What would truly honor a Free Mason's memory would be to get it mounted in a display case, and donate it to his home lodge. In my lodge, we sometimes get a family that donates a departed brother's apron to the lodge. We then frame it, and hang it in the lodge. The exception to this, at times, is if another male family member is a brother mason, then the items are given to him. In my case, when my little guy is old enough, if he chooses to be made a mason, I will leave him all my regalia, including my kilt from my membership in the Masonic Kilties.

Obviously, if he was in the pipe band, Masonry had great significance to him. It is only right that his masonic regalia be returned to it's rightful place, his lodge, where is memory will be honored by every brother who sees it. Also, the items will be cared for with the dignity and respect a departed brother deserves. This will also put an end to all the family squabbling.
