DEE LAKE 1951 - 1961 STATION AGENT, STATION MANAGER POY FLG Article in Spring 1957 ALEA magazine shows Dee on first FL/ALEA negotiating committee. A station managers' meeting photo in 1959 shows him as FLG manager. D H LAKE Seniority date of 1/7/51 on the 11/1/55 station seniority list. He's not on the 3/1/62 list. -Jake Lamkins (8/25/07) To Kerry Allen: Bill Mertens send me a copy of the first FL/ALEA Agreement from 1957. Am I right this was the first one? Your name, of course, is on the signature list. Can you give me any more info on the other signers for our side: Pat Cain, Dee Lake and Charles Black? I plan to scan it and post it at the FL Club. What do you recall about those first negotiations? -Jake Lamkins (2/4/10) I really don't remember Charles Black. Pat Cain was a Regional Rep for ALEA. A really intelligent guy. Good at what he did. I don't remember where he came to ALEA from. I believe he was a product from the Airline community however. Dee Lake was Station Manager at FLG just prior to my taking his place after he resigned to take a position as an ATC Controller. Another real prince of a FL man. I've heard of him occasionally - seems to me he went to SEA as a contoller. That's about the best I can come up with. I believe that this was the first ALEA agreement. I had one in my possession until recently but cant locate it. Too many moves I guess. -Kerry Allen (2/10/10) Dee Lake POY station manager Per 3/1/56 Station personnel Roster. -Jake Lamkins (2/13/10) D. H. LAKE POY station manager per the Nov 1955 FL Roster. D. H. LAKE Notation says Dee FLG station manager DOB 6/29/29 DOH 2/7/51 per the Feb 1960 FL Roster. Dee's obituary says he spent ten years at FL so I will assume he left in 1961. -Jake Lamkins (1/24/13) Posted at FLacebook and the FL Club: FLG station manager Dee Lake's memorial webpage has been posted. http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Dee_Lake.html Just found out about Dee's flight west. He was on the negotiating committee for the first FL/ALEA contract agreed upon Apr 11, 1957 when ALEA was the Air Line Agents Assn. -Jake Lamkins (1/28/13)
