Signal Maintainer Ricardo Hill is Lost to Virus

Line Equipment/Signals Division is mourning the loss to the Coronavirus of Signal Maintainer Ricardo Hill.  He had 20 years on the job and passed away on May 14, 2020 at the hospital.  He worked out of Liberty Junction on the A line.

Division Chair Duvet Williams, who worked with Brother Hill in the past, said that “Ricardo was a tremendous professional.  He was an expert on electronics.  If you needed to know anything about electronics, he would teach you.”

Brother Hill was an avid amateur photographer.  “He put a lot of effort into photography.  He had very expensive equipment, and was really good at it,” said Williams.  “This is really sad,” said Williams.  “Ricardo was in great shape from exercising and lifting weights.  He was a really good person, and a very positive influence on his co-workers.  We are all going to miss this great union brother.”
