We were informed earlier today and with deep regret that we announce the passing of 34-year member Brother Raymond Carroll.  Brother Carroll began working in 1987 for ADM Electric and was initiated into Local Union 488 on May 16, 1988.  He completed his apprenticeship, became a Journeyman Wireman in 1991, and in 2000 became a business partner with All Electric Construction.  In addition, Brother Carroll over the years held various positions in the IBEW and NECA.

The Biden Administration and Congress have won a historic achievement for IBEW members and their families with the Inflation Reduction Act. The enormous energy and tax package will put IBEW members to work in family-sustaining jobs for the secure, self-reliant grid of the future.

We regret to inform you on the passing of 67 year member Thomas F. Barton at the age of 91.
