Letter to John T. Ahern
 from Glenda L. Kruse


October 14, 2003

Mr. John Ahern
115-10 Myrtle Avenue
Richmond Hill, NY  11418

Dear Mr. Ahern:

The reason why I am sending you this letter is to inform you what a wonderful job the Benefit Fund office is doing.  My husband Raymond has been a member of Local 30 for about 3 to 4 years.  Before being a member at Local 30, my husband was a member of Local 456, for about 6 years.  In those 6 years I hated calling the Benefit Funds office because the staff was rude and unfriendly.  At times when I had questions regarding the insurance benefits they made me feel degraded like I should have known all the procedures of the benefits and humiliated, the way they had spoken to me.  At times I had complained about the matter but it seemed that nothing was done.

In regards to Local 30, Benefit Funds, I was extremely surprised of the warmth, kind, caring, understanding and especially patient staff/people they all are.  The Benefit Fund office doesn't see us as numbers, they see us as members, as "human beings" with feelings.  In respect to their hard work I have to say that the Local 30 has staffed extremely "professional caring individuals", that know the meaning of treating their members with kindness and respect.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
Glenda L. Kruse
