Members of AFSCME Local 1303-292, the Darien Public Works Union, are mourning the loss of their colleague and friend James P. Blakeney, Sr., who died Dec. 19 from complications due to COVID-19. He was 60.
Blakeney was a Driver-Laborer II for the Darien Department of Public Works, where he had been employed for more than 19 years.
Bargaining Unit President Dan Obuchowski remembers Blakeney as a dedicated employee and union member with a gift for making everyone smile
Subscribe James was one of a kind. There will never be another one like him, Obuchowski, a heavy equipment operator and skilled laborer, reflected.
