Membership is painless -- Simple contact info and dues of $25/yr (or more if you can do it) and you will receive Labor Life in the mail. Dues renewal notices are sent out to current members about Valentines Day each year. In both Fr Ed's farewell column in the September 07 Labor Life and his speech prepared for the Cushing Gavin Awards, he made strong appeals to invite more concerned labor & management & neutrals to join the Labor Guild as members.

• Rev. Edward F. Boyle, SJ We mourn the passing of our much loved and so highly respected Fr Ed, who died Nov 13, 2007 at Campion Jesuit Center in Weston, peacefully in his sleep, with family at his side, of cancer. We appreciate every one of the extended Guild and Boyle families who came to the wake and funeral, who sent cards, who stopped by the office for a hug - or to label postcards, or help with graduation the 19th - and those who reached out to help another in Fr Ed's name. The link below is a photoshow of some favorite Fr Ed photos. http://photoshow.comcast.net/watch/qU2HN8Dw
