DURING A CELEBRATION at Local 13 (Philadelphia) this past summer, the lodge honored retiring BM-ST Jim Banford, who headed the lodge for nine years and also served as its treasurer for 15 years. Three other L-13 business managers — past and present — were on hand for Banford’s send-off. L. to r. are Mike Dicicco, 1984-1996; Joe Murray, 1996-2002; Banford, 2002-2011; and John Clark, the lodge’s new BM-ST.
