Candlelight vigil this Tuesday, Feb 10th, for Teamsters 853 member Juan Jacobo who tragically passed on the job at US Foods

Teamsters 853 member Juan Jacobo, who worked at US Foods in Livermore, tragically passed away on the job on January 21st.  

Teamsters Local 853 is holding a candlelight vigil for Juan this coming Tuesday, Feb 10th, at 6 PM at the US Foods yard in Livermore.

If you can make the time, Juan’s wife and five children would take comfort in knowing that he was part of a community that respected and valued him and his work.  Let’s show them they are not alone in their grief.  

“When you stand shoulder to shoulder with these members at US Foods like we recently did when we organized this group, you do it to bring a better life to them,” Said Ray Torres, Teamsters Local 853 Vice President and Business Agent. “So when something happens this tragic, it’s simply heartbreaking to witness. We should give our all to Juan’s family.”
