Retiree Report January/February

Hello and hope everyone is safe and healthy.  We have several members/family that are still dealing with the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic.  At this point more especially the two-strains know as Delta and Omicron. The infections Omicron outbreak was the reason we postponed the retiree meetings since our last one in December 2021. 

This is a notification to inform the members we have tentatively scheduled our next meeting to start back April 11, 2021. 

Please pass the word.

Retiree Meeting Notice

After reviewing the COVID-19's continued threats of illness due the Delta and Omicron variants the Retiree Executive Board has unanimously agreed it is in the best interest of the Retirees that we cancel future meetings until further notice. 

We are still unable to get our Vendors to our meetings due to their travel restrictions that remain in to effect.

As always if you are in need or I can assist you with an issue, you can always give me a call on my cell phone 256-874-0850.
