I'm uncomfortable with a popularity contest. Could we just memorialize the Pelicans who pass for the year after?

Otherwise we miss acknowledging folks.

I never saw any mention of Chip Evaul, for one.

^^^^Agreed.
Lisa Spider comes to mind too. A great lady.
I never met any of the above but read their posts.
Drago left one of the most memorable posts for me on a thread I started. I won't go there.

Lisa was memorialized last year.


I tend to agree with TW on this one... at this rate we would never get to everyone...

This year lets go ahead and memorialize the above 5 Pelicans. and then next year we can do 5 more from years past along with anyone we may have lost during the year. This would at some time allow us to get caught up with those who have passed in the past and would keep us abreast of whoever may have passed during the year.

Sorry to anyone that I may have offended making it seem like a popularity contest as that was not my intention. It's just last year we sorta through this thing together at the spur of the moment and no one really had an opportunity to vote for a Pelican or for a Charity. Just wanted to try and make it democratic in a way...

I think this new idea will work great though and will not leave anyone unaccounted for.

I Voted & no offense, but why are you doing a Memorial for people that Died Years ago vs someone that passed in the last year?

I just saw this thread and I agree that all of them should be remembered.

Howard is the only person listed that I personally knew and his untimely passing hit me pretty hard. I miss talking with him.
