The Matt & Kim Holck `Ohana are forever grateful to Tony and the Rutledge `Ohana. My G´pa was a Teamster, Aunties, Uncles, Cousins and friends were Union members from the days of Pop Rutledge to the present.
I worked at Local as a Business Agent 1995-1998; learned sooo much!

As an employee of Kaiser Permanente, Tony did pave the way for Local 5 members. He did leave big footsteps behind where his name still echoes. RIL
