CFMA Awards

Michael W. Orr
On May 17, 1999, CFMA’s Executive Committee unanimously approved the creation of the Joe Quigley Memorial Award in memory of former national president and Valley of the Sun Chapter leader, Joe Quigley. As a remembrance of Joe Quigley, who was a founding member of the Valley of the Sun Chapter and served as its third president. Under his leadership, the Chapter developed its highly successful golf tournament to raise money for college scholarships. Joe’s commitment to local chapter activities, and CFMA in general, epitomizes the dedication and commitment of CFMA volunteers.
The Memorial Award recognizes outstanding chapter participation and activity. It is given each year to that CFMA General or Associate Member who exemplifies the following:
  • Enthusiasm in the promotion of CFMA at the chapter level
  • Contribution at the local chapter level (including participation in CFMA functions and committees)
  • Activities that support CFMA’s Mission, Core Purpose, and Core Values
  • Consideration for and service to fellow CFMA members and the local community
  • No officer from CFMA or ICCIFP is eligible for the Award until three (3) years have elapsed from their term of service.

The award was created by National Chairman Mel Burges in 2011 for the purpose of recognizing a CFMA member that exhibited extraordinary performance for one or more CFMA initiatives during their term in office. This newly established award would be available every year, but not mandatory and awarded at the discretion of the Chairman.

The first annual recipient of the Chairman’s Award is Gordon Marshall for his tireless work in the development of CFMA’s first eLearning course, Revenue Recognition. Bringing this course to our members and profession was no small task and even though it was a team effort, Gordon was truly the driving force behind it and his work will be the framework for all future eLearning courses.

The two sides subsequently agreed — via a handwritten agreement — to build the hospital within the original budget, with the VA in charge of submitting a new, pared-down design reflecting a number of cost-saving measures. But in a July 8 complaint to the Civilian Board of Contract Appeals,

                 HAPPY EIGHT TRACK TAPE DAY!!   When : Always April 11th   Eight Track Tape Day brings back fond memories of the sixties and seventies. During this era, eight track tapes ruled the music world. America's love of the automobile, was a driving force in creating the demand for musical cassette formats. For those who grew up in this era, an eight track tape player in your home and your car was an essential. It was eventually replaced by cassette and other formats for storing music. Eight Track Tape Day is a day to bring back fond memories of the sixties and seventies. If you still have tapes and a player, by all means enjoy the day listening to some great music. If not, just spend a few minutes looking back in time to when you loved your eight track tapes!   Did you know? Eight track tapes were created by the jet maker William Lear. Anybody have a matchbook?
