I was a Local 3 'A' Div. member (as was my father before me) from 1960 to 1984 during which time Brother Harry Van Arsdale Jr. was...and still is...the organized labor icon of his times. I shall never forget his fiery speeches at the monthly Local meetings and inspiration he gave all of us to always remain vigilant in securing better working and living conditions for organized labor. Thanks for this opportunity to express my feelings and debt of gratitude in memory and tribute to this great Union Man and a 'well done' to you for constructing this website. Thank you!
