Union Mourns Jaime English, Collecting Agent

Local 100 is mourning the tragic death of Brother Jaime M. English, a Collecting Agent since 2001.  Police are still investigating the circumstances of his death by gun shot in the crew room of his reporting location at 14^th Street and Seventh Avenue on the evening of Monday, February 12th.

No matter what the investigation ultimately yields, we have lost a good union Brother, who was a husband and father.

Co-workers expressed shock at the news, and remembered Brother English as a friendly, easygoing person, who was well-liked by his co-workers. There will be a viewing at the St. John's FBH Baptist Church at 1016 Fulton Street in Brooklyn, between Downing & Irving Place on Wednesday, February 18th. The viewing will be from 9AM to 11AM, followed by a service at 11AM.

Co-workers have begun a collection to help Brother English's family deal with their immediate financial crisis.  Anyone interested in donating, please contact Tommy Carpen at 347-724-2223.
