BM/ST Chris Geronimos Retires

DC 57 Business Manager Chris Geronimos has retired following five years as BM/ST and 40 years as a member of Local 6 and DC 57. Chris occupied many different offices during his time on staff, including organizing director and Local 6 service representative. As Business Manager he helped modernize the union’s operations, guided the District Council through the pandemic, and negotiated contracts that included record wages for many of our locals. His work ethic, attention to detail, and dedication to his union will be missed, but DC 57 wishes Chris a very well-deserved and fulfilling retirement.
