UPS drivers Al Vargas and Jeff McNeil were inducted into the UPS Circle of Honor which is achieved by having a safe driving record for 25+ years. Congressman Murphy spoke about their great achievement and congratulated all of the Circle of Honor members on their accomplishment and dedication to safety. Other Circle of Honor members in West Palm Beach were recognized including Mark Aiken, John Bostrom. John Deegan, Clint Edwards, Brian Fales, Bob Fasig, Greg Garceau, Craig Knauff, Keith Moser, Ben Nowlin, John Riddle, William Smith, and Gerald Tirpak.
UPS driver Mark Aiken was also presented with an award from the Police Chief of North Palm Beach, Rick Jenkins.

Upon their arrest, they were identified as wanted bank robbers from New York, demonstrating once again the commitment Teamster members have for looking out for everyone in their community.
Congratulations to all of the above mentioned members and to all of the Local 769 members who strive to make their community a better place to live.
