Local 2554 was saddened by the news that long-time Local 2554 Union President and current Vice President of Calexico Station, Lombardo Amaya, had passed away due to complications with a recent heart surgery on Tuesday morning, April 26, 2022. Lombardo was not only a Border Patrol Agent at Calexico Station, but spent many years representing the Local 2554 membership with a multitude of issues. Lombardo will always be remembered as a strong voice and advocate for the membership of El Centro Border Patrol Sector, but also as a close friend to the many people that knew him.

This Local, for one, will never forget the many lessons that Lombardo taught us in all his years of service. Lombardo was very knowledgeable with all things Union-related and he used that knowledge to help so may people.

We would like to express our sincere condolences to the family of Lombardo and the many people that will be affected by such a tragic loss.
