Local Lodge S6 Mourns The Loss Of Union Officer
“It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of our Brother Rick Poulin (Q-tip) passing away due to complications from COVID-19. Q-tip was an Officer of IAM Local Lodge S6, with 31 years in the electric shop at Bath Iron Works. We lost our brother, our friend, and our family. Our hearts are with his wife Theresa, family, friends, and all who knew and worked with him. If you met Q-tip, you knew just how solid of a man he was. Caring, joyful, strong, and the kind of person you could always count on to make things fun. We will miss him every day and never forget how he touched our lives and made working with him unforgettable. We love you brother, rest in peace dear friend.”

Local Lodge S6 Mourns The Loss Of Union Family
Local Lodge S6 is deeply saddened by the fatal car accident that took place last Friday; 5/14/21, on Route 1 in Brunswick, ME. This tragedy took the lives of our Union Brother Anthony Astor, his wife Dawn, and their granddaughter six-year-old Eleina. Eleina’s younger brother; Carson Astor, survived the crash.
Our hearts are with Anthony’s sons Anthony Astor Jr; an L40, and his brother Matthew Astor; a W12. As part of our BIW family, we are keeping them in our thoughts and prayers. We will be holding a gate collection this Thursday, May 20th, at all gates and facilities. Additionally, the family has started a Go Fund Me Page. The link is below.
