SEIU Member Killed in DC Metro Tragedy
By Mike Link
SEIU 32BJ member Ana Fernandez was one of the nine confirmed dead after the tragic Metro crash in Washington this week. To help make ends meet for her family of six children, Ana was on her way to her second job as a janitor at a building downtown when the crash happened.
Please watch this Washington Post tribute to Ana: At link.
Details will follow on a Memorial Fund to support Ana's husband and six children.
Also among the nine those who lost their lives in this tragedy was train operator and ATU Local 689 member Jeanice McMillan and CWA member Mary Doolittle. Our thoughts are with all of the families affected by this terrible crash.
