From JOHN STEPANICH, Seattle, WA.

JOHN sends $30.00 for the RUSTY HOOK, no message except the one that counts.

Thanks, JOHN.

From JOAN REDDING, Seattle, WA.

JOAN sends $50.00 to the RUSTY HOOK.

   Don't know how to express my 'gratitude' for the "Survivors pension" except to send a $50.00 contribution and say many thanks for all you do for us. Apply where needed. 

JOAN (SALLY) REDDING
(JOHN REDDING'S Widow)"

Our appreciation is great, especially since we have received generous contributions from her before.

From TIV EAGLEHAWK, Seattle, WA.
"Pension Club -Hey, guys -

What can I say? I am truly stunned; I never dreamed you could get us such a terrific raise in pensions.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! You are all wonderful. And I do know what a fight you had battling the PMA and big headed Bush and his rich business backers - Who says the little guy can't win. It just takes a lot of guts and determination. And you guys have plenty of both.

Mrs. TIV EAGLEHAWK Widow of NICK NICHOLS.

But there's more from TIV: "RUSTY HOOK, 9/2/03

  Many thanks for the wonderful reporting.-I look forward to each copy -Then I pass it around to my grandson and now an 18 year old great grandson -I hope they get the message about the need for strong unions like ours.

Best wishes,
TIV EAGLEHAWK"

TIV, along with a strong message sends $100.00 to the kitchen fund and $50.00 to the RUSTY HOOK. Our appreciation is great, TIV. not only for the donations, but also for a great message! Thanks a lot.

From ELVALENE AARBAK HAYWARD, Renton. WA.
"Dear Mr. O'Neil,
   Here is the photo of my father I said I would send when we spoke at the Sears store. I am sorry it took me so long. I had to search for the one in the trunk that looks most like he did the last few years he worked.

   My father loved the waterfront and thought a great deal of his friends in the union. I know he would be proud to know you want his picture.

Yours truly,
ELVALENE AARDBAK HAYWARD.

Thanks for sending the RUSTY HOOK."

Note: TERRY collects pictures of retirees and puts them on a display board in the office. If we don't have yours, send or bring one in. Rest assured, ELVALENE, your father's picture will join our place of honor.

From LONNIE NELSON, Seattle, WA.
"RUSTY HOOK,
  Great Pensioners convention. Learned a lot. Here is $15.00 for one year's dues, not sure where I stand. Keep up the HOOK. The longshore culture I grew up with has kept me on an even keel

"My heart is union country No bosses need apply."   

LONNIE NELSON,
daughter of BURT (56402) and HELLEN NELSON."

Thanks for the dues, LONNIE, and the great note.
