Congratulations, Timothy Young! Tim was celebrated at the 41st IAM Grand Lodge Convention for 50 continuous years of membership and service to our great Union. Our District 9 IAMAW and Bluff City Lodge 660 IAMAW Brother joined the IAM in 1974 during his senior year of high school as part of a career program at Rotary Machine Shop. In 1978, Tim moved to Owen’s Illinois Machine Shop, where he completed his apprenticeship and became a Journeyman Machinist. During his career, Tim served as Shop Chairman, Conductor-Sentinel, Trustee, Vice President, and as President from 2005-until his retirement on December 31, 2020. In 1999, Tim accepted the opportunity to serve as District 9 IAMAW Secretary Treasurer and remained in that position until his aforementioned retirement. Tim’s commitment to our Machinists Union did not end at retirement, as he continues to serve District 9 as Communicator, remains a delegate to District 9, and is proud to say he is still a FULL DUES PAYING MEMBER! Please take a moment to congratulate a true Machinist and hero of Labor, Brother Tim Young!
