As Local 237 members struggle to provide vital services to New Yorkers during the COVID-19 pandemic, we pause to honor those we have lost during this crisis.  We are grateful for all that they have contributed to our communities and union and for the work they have done protecting our most vulnerable.

Our thoughts and prayers remain with their families and friends and to all of those who have had the privilege of serving with them.  May they rest in peace and we pray that their families find comfort in knowing that we share the pain of their loss.
