Death Benefit Memorial

Please Visit the Memorial in the Amarillo Union Hall

Welcome to the Memorial Tribute Page of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local Union 602. Here, we honor and remember our beloved members who have passed away, commemorating their contributions and the lasting impact they made within our union.

The Memorial Tribute Page serves as a dedicated space to acknowledge the members who participated in our Death Benefit Program. It is with deep respect and gratitude that we remember these individuals who were an integral part of our union’s history. Each name listed represents a cherished member who will forever hold a special place in our hearts and memories.

In our Amarillo hall’s main meeting room, you will find our solemn Memorial Wall adorned with plaques bearing engraved plates for each departed member. This sacred space stands as a testament to their dedication, camaraderie, and the enduring legacy they left behind. The Memorial Wall serves as a poignant reminder of the bonds we share as a Brotherhood and the collective strength that unites us.

We invite you to explore this tribute, pay your respects, and reflect on the profound impact these individuals had on our union and the electrical industry. Let us honor their memory and continue to carry their spirit forward as we work towards a brighter future for our members and their families.

Please note that the Memorial Tribute Page and the Memorial Wall represent our sincere commitment to preserving the legacy of our departed members, and we strive to maintain the accuracy and dignity befitting their memory.

A tribute to our deceased members…
