Longtime CTA Member Allan Brody with Expressway Transport passed away unexpectedly on August 7, 2019. Allan was a beloved member of the Bay Area Unit who was always helpful and eager to assist at Truck Driver Appreciation (TDA) events. He grilled burgers and hot dogs at TDA events for the past 12+ years. Allan did not want a funeral, instead he wanted a Celebration of Life that will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for a donation to be made to your favorite charity in Allan's name.
