Our brother, leader and friend Ron Carey passed away on Thursday night at the age of 72. The man who built Local 804 into the most powerful local in the country and who transformed our International Union and the labor movement is no more. But his legacy lives on.

Ron is survived by his wife of more than fifty years, Barbara Carey; their five children, Daniel Carey, Ronald Carey, Sandra Perrone, Pamela Casabarro, and Barbara Marchese; and 13 grandchildren.

May God bless Ron Carey and his family in this tragic time of his passing.
