Brothers and Sisters,
Season’s Greetings.
During the course of the year, we are all busy trying to balance all aspects of our lives,
from work to family to friends to health. So, it is during the holiday season I like to slow
down for a second and reflect.
As 2019 draws to a close, I would like to personally thank
the members and staff of IBEW Local 43 for all the outstanding work you do throughout the
year to make our local union great! Whether it’s the work you do on a job site or out in
our community, each and every one of you works tirelessly to make sure that our contractors
and customers receive the very best.
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you
and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Healthy and Happy New Year.
Fraternally,
Alan Marzullo
