Bill, congratulations.

If I may, I'd like to remind the members that this award is based on input and examples from us the members. Based on member input, Bill Cody was an easy first decision, and the Dave Willis Legacy Award will continue to travel that path. It's not about the biggest fish, the most money spent, or post counts. It's about the sharing of time and knowledge within both the PB Forum, and the pond community in general. Bill Cody exemplifies that, and although I only met Dr. Willis one time, I think he would be proud right now. Member suggestions for future Dave Willis Legacy Award candidates can be PM'ed to committee chairman teehjaeh57, sprkplug, Dave Davidson1, esshup, catmandoo, or myself.

There will always be a first recipient, and it was an personal honor to have a small part in helping select Bill Cody as that recipient.
