Tragically, our dear Brother Amritpal (Local 502) passed away June 10, 2018 in a motorbike collision.  Family and friends are raising funds to support Amritpal’s wife and two children, aged 11 and 14.  In the spirit of solidarity, we are asking Local 500 members to donate to this fund.

Amritpal Takhar and family.

The loss of Amritpal will be felt by all of us, from his childhood friends to his ILWU brothers and sisters.

Rest in Peace Amritpal Takhar (November 16, 1980 – June 10, 2018).
