Dear Nancy:

Over the years, Local 237 has received many accolades. We earned praise for countless accomplishments that helped both our active members and retirees enjoy a better quality of life. Because of this, our membership has remained strong and our retirees, loyal, closely portraying your motto: “Retired from work not from the union”.

From your fabulous holiday celebrations, to awards ceremonies, you always give your all. Your special style of mixing showmanship, attention to details, and just having fun, often transformed an otherwise drab union hall into a Broadway stage, an opera house, a disco and a four-star restaurant all in one. Everyone enjoys a Nancy event. Of course, I dare mention one exception: Founders Day ice cream dessert...enough said!

Nancy, I want you to know that your work ethic is an inspiration and your friendship a gift.  Thank you for sharing both with me.

God bless.
Greg
