Stan Beal will be missed by the union movement and the cricketing community.
The PSA is saddened to have lost long-time staff member and supporter Stan Beal.
Stan was born on 15 February, 1951 and was an outstanding unionist who continued his commitment long after he left the workforce.
It was only his declining health that prevented him attending Retired Associates meetings in PSA House.
Stan had more than 50 year’s association with the PSA. He began employment for the Department of Lands in late 1968 and became a member of the union in early 1969.
He conducted PSA elections from 1977, including PSA elections at Annual Conference, until new polling requirements came into force.
In 1992 he became a full-time employee of the PSA in various administration roles. He conducted other PSA-related elections before becoming the Office and Building Manager up until his retirement in 2015.
Stan also had a 40-year association with Randwick and later Randwick Petersham Cricket Clubs fulfilling roles of Practice Captain, Operations, Assistant CEO, CEO and Chairman of Selectors. He helped young cricketers from the country seeking opportunities in the city by providing accommodation and help securing employment whilst they were at local universities.
