The WLEA Executive Board is sad to learn that AFSCME Local 82 lost one of their long serving great union stewards and former bargaining team member, Donald (Don) Schmurda.  Don past away over the past week.  Don served all WSEU members with professionalism and dignity.  Although we left AFSCME to better our bargaining unit, we (unions) are fighting for the same cause, to better our working conditions.  Don served his members to that standard.  He will be missed by his collegues and the union community in this great State.  Thanks Don for your dedication and service.
