Working around heavy equipment such as backhoes, bucket trucks and cranes. Things can go wrong and a person will get a hand cut or maybe a broken arm or leg. Sometimes thing go very wrong and workers don’t come home to their loved ones. BTW--- One of the men that were in the hospital didn’t make it. To any union ironworkers --- Four of your union brother’s families could use some help.

I am very familiar with the heartache involving heavy machinery. As a pulp mill worker I have been witness to the life shattering loss of life & limb. I have had 3 friends killed & numerous others burned, cut, mashed, etc. So far I have been lucky to have only sustained minor cuts & scraped on the job. When folks complain about how much pulp mill workers make , I tell them they pay us for the risk we take by entering the gate. Remembering Robbie, Roy, & Mikey.  |

Something that opponents of Unions don't realize is at times like these, the local and fellow brothers will help. While nothing can bring back a loved one, a collection will be taken up and passed along to the families.
I will also second what noonebil said. Of all the places I work at I hate paper mils the most. They are dangers and dirty.
