Martin ‘Marty’ Blight, a long-term employee of Serco Mill Park, a committed ASU member, a father, a friend to many, and a keen fisherman, died aged 46 on Monday 13 September 2021 in hospital.
Marty became unwell with Coronavirus after his workplace was identified as a Tier 1 site and he was subsequently identified as a close contact.
We know Marty’s death will be very hard for many of his family, friends, and colleagues to process.
The Union has been speaking with Marty’s family directly and both the ASU and Marty’s family would like to take this opportunity to encourage everyone to get vaccinated as soon as possible so that no one else has to go through the trauma of losing someone to COVID-19.
Our sympathy and our solidarity is with Marty’s family and friends during this incredibly difficult time.
