The incredible devotion of NATCA ZFW Member Jeff Duer : Our thanks go out to
ZFW FacRep Nick Daniels, whose account of relief efforts in Houston in last Friday's
NATCA Insider included the great story of ZFW member Jeff Duer. Writes Nick:
"Jeff decided to combine his passions for barbecue and helping others for those who
had been impacted by Hurricane Harvey. We put Jeff in cont act with the FacReps at
Houston TRACON (I90), Houston ATCT (IAH), and Houston Center (ZHU) because he
realized the workers down there would not be able to have a chance to celebrate Labor
Day in the wake of the destruction. Jeff set his plan into motion an d made this idea a
reality by loading up 1,000 pounds of meat for transport. He left for Houston on Sunday
in order to arrive at ZHU by Monday.
"Jeff not only served NATCA members at IAH, I90, and ZHU, but he also went into the
community where he found pe ople working on their homes, feeding them and their
neighbors as well. He drove up and down streets giving out food and water to person
after person."
