Hearts are heavy at the Hall these days. Longtime Local 916 secretary Sue Fickas passed away June 12th from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident that occurred on June 8th. Sue preceded all of us at the Local Union office, with 19 years experience as secretary and Health & Welfare â Pension Specialist. We lost a tremendous amount of institutional history with her passing.
More than that, we lost a very special person. Sue was a light in the office, always cheerful on the phone and ready with a pleasant word and an offer to help. Every member who called in was âbabeâ and âhonâ to Sue, and she was dedicated to making sure they had a good experience with the office. She was a true believer in the labor movement and Teamstersâ causes became her causes.
