Brothers & Sisters,

It is with great sadness that I share this news. For those who knew Jack or have had the honor of being in his company, you never knew what to expect but you knew you would have a great time. Jack was involved with Local 2007 from the day he entered the fire service.  As past Secretary he started our newsletter to keep our brothers and sisters informed. Even after his retirement he was very supportive of the union with his vast knowledge. At the time of his passing Jack was the President of the Albany  Firefighter Retirees Association .

Celebration of life will be held Thursday 12:00 pm November 11 at Albany Firefighters Union Hall 39 Quail St. ALbany, NY

He will be greatly missed.

With sadness,

Andy Hirsch
