Brothers and Sisters,
Earlier today Local 26 learned about a tragic event on a jobsite today which resulted in a fatality. It is our understanding that the victim was one of our own. Our condolences go out the family of this member and to any of our Union family that may have known the victim. We will provide further information as it is made available to us and when appropriate. Please try to refrain from speculation and hearsay, as that doesn’t help the situation and may cause even more pain to those who knew and loved this individual.
