DRFFA 2026 Dues are now being accepted.
Our treasurer, Dale Ellis has asked to send out a reminder that 2026 dues of $60.00 (That’s still only $5. per month) are now due and remind everyone of our address:

DRFFA
PO Box 327
Maypearl, Tx. 76064

UPDATED Payment Method now being accepted. We are now able to accept Zelle as a payment method for dues. Zelle is used by City Employees Credit Union as well as a large percentage of banks. You can use Zelle to pay DRFFA dues by sending your Zelle payment to ndellisbatt5a@gmail.com

We are still able to receive funds by Dpfp monthly deduction, personal check as well as Zelle. Please do not send cash.

Just a reminder, surviving spouses are lifetime members and are not required to pay dues. Be sure and keep us up to date on your contact information and email address.

Members that would still like to skip the hassle of sending in a check every year and have the fee deducted by payroll deduction are advised to go online and download the form or call the pension office and have them send you one. After filling out the form, mail it directly to the Pension office. Members that do so are advised to make sure and check off each organization that you donate to including the Burial Fund and the Museum. The Pension Fund website is DPFP.org
