2009 Dinner Dance Pictures
We would like all those who were able to attend this years function for showing their support for our recent retirees. We'd also like to extend a special thanks to Congressman Peter King for attending as he has been a strong supporter of Local 56 and of LIRR labor as well.

Brothers,

 

I would like to thank all of the Local 56 members who purchased the red Union shirts over the past few weeks. Not only were the shirts were sold to promote solidarity amongst our members, they also enabled us to help a fellow Brother who was in distress for the holidays. Brother Gerry Glennon (Comm Signalman), has two young children at home who are physically challenged. Recently, his son had a surgery that required Gerry to miss quite a bit of work, which in turn, exhausted all of his vacation and personal days. Needless to say, because of the generosity of our membership and their continued commitment towards solidarity, we were able to raise enough funds to hand Gerry a check for $1,100.00 at the Communications Christmas party at Flanagans in Babylon. With over 80 Brothers past & present looking on in attendance and the ability to make a difference, it personified the true meaning of the Holidays!  THANK YOU ALL!!!

 

Fraternally,

William White

 

Editors note: Brother White's efforts in this matter should be lauded as well, for without them there would've been no "Red Shirts" and nothing of note for the Glennon family.

 
 
 
 
Toast To Our Troops Fundraiser
The fundraiser took place June 20 and we'd
like to thank all who came out in support this
worthy cause which raised nearly $10,000.00.
Our local New York troops will surely appreciate
the supplies that they'll be recieving overseas
in Afghanistan.
