About the NSUJL

On January 26, 2012, a small group of women from the “IBEW Wives” Facebook group banded together with the idea of hosting a basket raffle to raise funds for the family of John Plante, a journeyman lineman from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 104, who had tragically been involved in a fatality on the job. Frustrated by the lack of charities dedicated to linemen, especially given the dangers of the profession, this ignited the mission of NSUJL.

HONORING OUR FALLEN

To those who walked the line and kept the watch: you are never forgotten. We stand in honor of the families, the friends and the heroes who remain part of our eternal brotherhood.

Ramon Rodriguez

10/13/1988 – 4/24/2024

A beloved brother of IBEW Local 47, Ramon was a devoted Father to Raymond, Isabella and Ramon Jr., husband to Sonia and son, brother and friend to all who knew him. His memory lives on forever.

James C. Terrill

12/5/1996 – 5/25/2024

James was a dedicated husband to his wife Maisie. He was proud to be a 3rd generation lineman with IBEW Local 2150 who was known for his generous nature and love for the outdoors. James was truly “The Real Deal”.

Scott W. Ballentine

3/22/1990 – 5/28/2024

Scott was a proud lineman with IBEW Local 20 who lived his life dedicated to his wife Hali and his daughter Aubrey. With his calloused hands and giving heart, Scott will be missed by everyone he met.
