I came across Hearold's name on a 1968 ALEA list.
Do you recall him?
Was he an agent? Where?
Is he alive?
His name sounds familiar but I can't pin it down.
I'm attaching a pic that was with the article.
H. Elmer is #56 on the 1955 Station Personnel Seniority List.
He is #25 on a March 1, 1962 seniority list.
His date of classification is 4-18-51
He is shown as station manager at Clifton on a Mar. 1, 1956 station list sent by Ed Baker.

I worked with Hearold Elmer in Safford (SAD) and Clifton (CFT) AZ in the 1953-1955 timeframe.  
I was a Relief Agent, so I would be back and forth from time to time.  
To begin with, Hearold Elmer was a Station Agent in SAD.  The Manager was Bob Patterson.  
Later on Hearold was made Manager of CFT.  I lost track of him after 1955. 
I remember that he owned the mineral rights of a large tract of land that had some valuable minerals (Gold? Uranium?) on it.  
I heard from the grapevine that and that he became very rich from it after he left the FAL employment.

I drove up from Houston to the DFW Metroplex for the holiday weekend, and
while there, I  took my daughter and stopped by the hospital in FTW last
Saturday and visited for over an hour with E.P. Lietz and Shirlee.  He is in
pain, and with tubes running in and out all over, but he remains in very
good spirits.  We need to drop him a line from time to time to let him know
we still think of him.  I hadn't seen him for 50 years, but we still hit it right off.
I reminded him of the last time I had seen him in 1955, when he was in the
Arizona National Guard and he had flown his P-51 Mustang from Phoenix over
to Clifton (CFT) to see Hearold Elmer, who was then the manager at CFT. 
After his visit, he got back into his P-51 and took off then he did a 180
and came the length of the runway at about 100 feet altitude doing slow
rolls the whole way.  It was awesome.

Hearold Elmer was station manager in Winslow in the late 1950s and early 1960s. 
That's where I met him.  
If I remember correctly, he was instrumental in bringing union membership to the FAL agents.
He had a lot of help from another fellow who was Senior Agent in Flagstaff, but I can't remember his name.  
Can anyone help me out on that?

Hearold also worked in Denver in 69-70 as system trainer for station agents.  He worked for Al Springer.  
I was trained by him in February 1970.

The memory is a little slow these days, 
but I think the Sr. Agent in FLG who was also very instrumental in developing the agent's union was Kerry Allen. 
That would have been in late 1958 or 1959. 
He also served on the union negotiating committee a number of times.  Does that name ring a bell with anyone?

I first met Hearold Elmer in about 1953 when he was a Station Agent in
Safford/SAD along with Station Manager Bob Patterson.  He owned the mineral
rights to some property in the area which was expected to have uranium on
it.  I never heard how that turned out.  He was then transferred to
Clifton/CFT as Station Manager.  I worked with him on and off for about two
years.  Then I left FAL and lost track of him.  I hope this adds something to
your research.
