Subject: | 100 – The Passing of Alberto Camacho, Acquisition Program Management Branch Manager
|
It is with much sorrow that I share with you the news about the passing of another TSA colleague. Late Friday evening, we learned Alberto Camacho, a Branch Manager in the Acquisition Program Management office, passed away after contracting the novel coronavirus (COVID-19).
For over 20 years Alberto dedicated his career to both transportation and aviation security, and his contributions to TSA and our mission will not be forgotten.
Alberto first joined the TSA family in 2005 as a Training Manager in San Francisco, and held positions in Security Operations, the Federal Air Marshal Service and Enterprise Support. He last served as the Central Region Deployment Branch Manager at the TSA Systems Integration Facility (TSIF) in Arlington, VA, where he oversaw the successful implementation of our passenger and baggage technologies. Every day, he worked closely with TSA’s partners to ensure our security technology remained cutting edge and ahead of the threat.
We continue to do everything we possibly can to make sure that your health, safety and well-being remains a top priority. As a reminder, TSA’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a free resource for employees dealing with loss and other difficult life challenges. These services are confidential, and include stress management, change management and other problem solving support. Up to six free counseling sessions are available for TSA employees and their family members.
In addition, direct support is available via the toll free number (800) 222-0364 (TTY 1-888-262-7848) or online at FOH4you.com. More about Human Capital’s Workforce Programs can be found on the TSA Workforce Programs website.
I ask that you join me as we celebrate Alberto’s life and mourn his passing, and I send my deepest condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.
