Remembering a fallen leader

mike-mcneilCUPE President Mark Hancock took time from in his address to convention to pay tribute to CUPE NS President Mike McNeil, who passed away suddenly this month, only weeks after being selected to the position.

“Mike was a dedicated union activist for most of his life,” said Hancock. “Mike was passionate about union education and as a facilitator he touched the lives of thousands of CUPE members in Nova Scotia.”

“On behalf of all CUPE members, Brother Charles and I have conveyed our deepest sympathies to Mike’s wife Darlene, their three children, all of his family and friends.”
