One was the Business Agent. I bailed on day I achieved 30 years. Received my first pension check the next day.  I've been retired 27 years this May. Live on a lake and enjoying sitting on deck watching the view and wildlife and of course, fishing. I was a union steward and seen so much pressure management put on employees. Every person has their on agenda on life and when to retire. I felt the longer an employee was under this stress, the shorter their life would be. The comment on looking for surviving classmates, look for surviving managers or fellow union employees. It would be interesting to see the percentage of managers to union who passed quickly after retirement.</p></blockquote><p></p>
