Martin Luther King Jr. Day

On this day when we honor the life and legacy of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I feel honored to share one of his many quotes that provides a compass for us to navigate life by. “The time is always right, to do what’s right.”

These simple words provide a foundation and focus for the APWU Health Plan. Please know that here at the Health Plan, we strive to do what’s right for our members every day, whether it’s answering a quick question or helping solve a complex health care challenge, we are here for you and dedicated to doing what is right.

Enjoy this special day as we reflect on the life and principles of Reverend Doctor King… Together Better Health

Happy Veterans Day

November 9, 2017November 10, 2017directorsblog2

As a Navy veteran, today holds a very special meaning to me and my fellow brothers and sisters who served our country in uniform. I was one of the lucky ones. I received great training in the Navy’s Nuclear Power Program, served on board the USS California for multiple deployments and upon discharge, I was able to enjoy civilian life with my wife and three children. Too many of our veterans were not as fortunate as I and live with the consequences of honorably serving in our military. I think about that every day.

I have been blessed with a great career with the US Postal Service and am now honored to serve my union family as the Director of our Health Plan. Join me and our entire team at APWUHP by appreciating the vets in your life.

Happy Veterans Day. Today and every day. Click here to see our special Veterans Day tribute.
