EARLY QUIT NEWSLETTER...
Vice President Jim O’Driscoll opened our meeting by dedicating it to the memory of our President Bill Rothermel who passed away on February 16th.  President Bill was instrumental in starting the retirees club and helping to make it so successful.  After retiring as business agent, Bill and Business Manager, Pat Eiding, obtained the information for starting our retirees club.  We are now in our 16th year.

Our club historian, Bill McCarron put aside his report and asked the members to tell of their many memories of working with Bill.  As a business agent he was always ready to help when help was needed.

Donations in his memory can be made to:

Fox Chase Center/Meso Fund

Vice Presidents’ Jim O’Driscoll and  George Griggs will run our meetings for the remainder of the year.  A big thank you for stepping up.  You have our fullest support.

We received word at our meeting of the passing of Paul Guenther long time member and friend of many. He will be sadly missed.
