2015 Striped-Bass.com Saltheart Memorial Member of the Year Nomination Thread.

Last year we lost Mike White, one of the very first members here on S-B and always helping out, offering encouragement, and on rare occasion when we needed it, being our conscience and keeping us on an even keel.

For the first time, we will have this award for a member of S-B, carrying his name. This is a worthy award.

I guess my primary influence on how we determine this member would be that this award goes to someone that gives selflessly to the community, our community.

Remember, NOMINATION, not voting part. First and Seconded.

Top nominees will be entered in a poll to determine who the S-B.com COMMUNITY feels the MEMBER of the Year.

Simple Rules:

* Member needs to be a member with (at least) regular PARTICIPATION in 2015. Should be based heavily on being a great S-Ber and and all around good fellow.
* Name only
* Member needs TWO nominations (nomination and seconded)

I'll take these names for nomination for this week and put up an anonymous poll after for voting. Member needs TWO nominations (a/k/a nomination and seconded). Winner to be announced at TFCTFN)

Previous S-B MOY Awardee and namesake of this award:
2013 Mike White A/K/A Saltheart.
2014 Paul Devitt a/k/a Niko

I tried to find out when he passed but no one could point me in the right direction. I know Mike lived alone but he did have kids and at least one was a son. JohnR may know more.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

I second Patrick.

I already got this the first year so I don't qualify, thanks anyway

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

You know, Bob has had such a tough year he deserves it. He rarely complained and was always there for his fellow striper person.

Tough one. I'd nominate 5/0 just based from his post. Slip also does a ton.

5/0... Even with all he had/has going on in his own life, which was ALOT, he always makes time to check in on me to see how I am and my wife is doing during her breast cancer battle. Guy's top notch in my book... love ya bud!

Blackstone Valley Outfitters in Cumberland had a lot of his stuff. I believe the owner bought it as part of an estate sale. Rod blanks, plugs, jigs, etc. I would think a lot of stuff is still in there. There was also a plug I think slip painted in the case up front.
