Honorary Citizen of the United States

Sir Winston Churchill, Rosemary Lodge 2581, London, British Prime Minister and one of the great leaders of the 20th century, on April 9, 1963 became the first person ever to receive the designation "Honorary Citizen of the United States." 

Only 7 people hold this rare distinction.  Among them are Marquis de Lafayette, A Freemason who is also an Honorary member of the Grand Lodge of Missouri and Casimir Pulaski, reported to be a member of Gould Lodge of Georgia.  Congress granted 5 of the honorary citizenships posthumously, with Brother Churchill and Mother Theresa being the only designees to receive the honor while living.
