A Brother in need - (11/16/2023)

November 16, 2023

Earlier this year, Brother Andrew Boggs was diagnosed with cancer. After multiple rounds of Chemotherapy, surgery was scheduled to remove the growth. After a delayed surgery and more testing, tests came back to show the cancer has spread. The surgeon’s prognosis was one of bad news.

                Brother Boggs has only been able to work 80 hours in the last nine months.  Andrew is married to Elizabeth, and has three sons, Elijah 17, Caleb 11 and Seamus 7. This holiday season the Local will be collecting donations for the Boggs family. Due to his immune system being compromised, we are asking for all donations to be delivered to the Union Hall by Wednesday December 13th so everything can be properly sanitized before being delivered to the family. Gift cards are recommended, but any donation is greatly appreciated.

                On behalf of the officers of Local 704, we thank you for your consideration. Let’s show Brother Boggs and his family an amazing Christmas this year.
