On the morning of 16 November 2014 Laurie Burley passed away after a year-long battle with cancer. He will be sadly missed by the union movement and particularly the meatworkers in the retail sector. Since 1989 Laurie was an Organiser with the AMIEU. On behalf of meatworkers in the retail sector he pursued every issue with fearless, unrelenting tenacity until an acceptable conclusion was reached. Laurie would persevere when others would either not have started or otherwise would have long given up.
Our thoughts and condolences go to the family of Laurie and all of his comrades at the AMIEU.
