We are saddened to share the passing of Brother Leland "Lee" Neff on May 6 at the incredible age of 99 years, 8 months. At 83 years of service, he was Local 1’s longest dues-paying member — an extraordinary milestone that reflects a lifetime of loyalty, craftsmanship and brotherhood.

In addition to his eight decades in the trade, Lee proudly served our country in the U.S. Navy during both World War II and the Korean War as a ship’s cook. He was a devoted family man, lifelong Cubs fan and someone who stayed active and social well into his later years, enjoying cards, pool, bingo, music and time with loved ones.

Just months shy of his 100th birthday, Lee leaves behind a remarkable legacy of service and dedication that will not be forgotten.

We extend our deepest condolences to the Neff family and all who knew him.

The construction industry has many well-known workplace hazards — falls, struck-by accidents and electrocution among the most common. But it also faces another serious risk: one of the highest su***de rates of any industry, about four times higher than the general population, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, we want to share resources available to all members. There’s no shame in asking for help — we’re stronger together.

📞 Call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline

Local 1 and our JATC run as smoothly as they do because of the incredible people working behind the scenes.
