Jim Bauer - 2001

Jim was a working member of the NVFOA for at least 25 years and possibly as long as thirty.  He worked every position, as most officials did when he started, however he spent the vast majority of his time as an umpire and referee.  With the early NVFOA records incomplete, it has been concretely established that Jim served at least five terms on the board; at least two years as banquet chairman; and at least two years as the interpreter.  As his career ended due to ill health, Jim stayed with the association a brief while to serve as an observer.

Charlie Fenimore - 2001

Charlie was a working member of the NVFOA for 24 years and regularly worked the positions of field judge (now line judge); back judge; and referee.  He served as the association Secretary-Treasurer for 17 years and 1 month; longer than any other association member.

Tony was a working member of the NVFOA for 29 years and regularly worked the positions of field judge (now line judge) and referee (twenty years).  He served ten terms as a board member; he served four years as the interpreter; Tony also took a turn at chairing the banquet committee.  He served on numerous other committees including the clinic committee, the contract committee, and the review committee.  He was also Parliamentarian on numerous occasions.  Being a native of New York City, Tony was known for his direct, no holds barred approach to fairness and honesty.  His one and only concern was, whatever was best for the NVFOA.
