In Loving Memory of Our Beloved Sister & Soldier in the Fight
JANE PALMBACH -
Our beloved Sister Jane joined the Midwest staff of ACTWU in 1990 as an organizer in Ohio and Minnesota. She went on to be a service representative in Ohio and Minnesota. Jane then took up the challenge of Northern District Director and finally Wisconsin State Director for UNITE HERE Midwest Regional Joint Board.
Jane attended the University of Wisconsin to become a teacher. After graduation she moved to the southwest for a while before returning to Appleton, Wisconsin. Jane worked at Zwicker knitting mill in Appleton, where she held various local union offices.
Luckily for the Union Jane decided to come out on the Kleen Test organizing campaign in 1989 in Milwaukee where she quickly proved to be a talented organizer.
Jane was smart, funny and an extremely loyal and honest person. She had great affection for working people and especially the UNITE HERE members in the Chicago & Midwest Region. We will miss Jane forever. She’s irreplaceable.
