We are deeply saddened to report that 16-year IBEW 1245 member Brian Brown was fatally injured while working with Wasatch Electric in Idaho last week. Details are limited, but it is our understanding that he was working with a truck and trailer at the time of accident.

Brother Brown worked as an Apprentice and Journeyman Lineman at several properties in our jurisdiction since 2008. He was 50 years old and leaves behind a loving family. For those who wish to contribute to the family during this heartbreaking time, donations can be sent via Venmo https://account.venmo.com/u/megancleggmadeitmine
