On behalf of the Florida Board of Certified Investigators, it is a pleasure to recognize outstanding investigators who contribute so much to our profession.
For the first time, the James E. Reddick Memorial Award was presented at the FAPI Annual Conference in September 2009. This award is presented in honor of a man known for his kindness and helpfulness to other PI's. So it was an honor to present this award to Steven L. Stansbury, who is recognized as a friend, mentor, and leading professional investigator by his peers.
It has been a definite honor and privilege to review the credentials, and to speak with the various nominators in preparing for these awards. We have many outstanding investigators throughout the State of Florida and these individuals exemplify the best. Congratulations Steve!
