WHEREAS, It is with great sadness that members of this Chamber learned of the death of Allen Joseph Hayes, on February 1, 2016, at the age of sixty-five; and

 

WHEREAS, The City Council has been informed of his passing by The Honorable Margaret Laurino, Alderman of the 39th Ward; and

Clothier; fond uncle of many nieces and nephews; and treasured friend to all who had the pleasure of knowing him. Allen leaves a legacy of faith, dignity and love; and

 

WHEREAS, Allen worked for the City of Chicago Department of Streets and Sanitation for twenty years, in addition to being a dedicated Precinct Captain with the 39th Ward Regular Democratic Organization.
