I just posted my last Giveaway so am I am retiring from the Giveaways

**str8razor** · 03-21-2018, 10:21 PM

Hi All,
I have been doing the giveaways for the past 9 1/2 years and it is time to pass the torch to someone else. The person taking over for me is Dieseld and his name is Dave Alexandrowski. I have been in contact with him and I am sure that he will do as good a job and probably a better job than I have. I just mailed all of the prizes to him yesterday so if all goes well he should up and running for the April Giveaway.

I want to thank all of you for you help and kindness that you have thrown my way during the past few years it has been appreciated. I leave this job with a sad heart because it has been enjoyable doing the job and chatting with all of you over the years. I have made several friends doing this job. I know that you will treat Dieseld (Dave) with the respect that have shown me over the years.

I hope that I will visit the forum a bit more that I did when I was doing the giveaways but we will see.

Hope to chat with some of you late,
Bill Watkins aka str8razor

You have become a real institution around here Bill. You have some really big shoes to fill and you deserve a real round of applause from all the members here.

So, stand up and take a bow.

I haven't been an SRP member for long but I have been on other forums and have seen several come and go. I do know that it takes several dedicated individual to keep a forum up and running for turkeys like me. I appreciate the work that it takes to keep something like the giveaway going for an extended period of time, and 9 1/2 years is a very extended time!! Your effort is appreciated.

Bill, It was a true pleasure to finally meet you at Charlie's in Texas.

I just want to offer you a heartfelt thank you for all that you have done for the forum over the years.

Relax and enjoy your time.

Pete <:-}

Bill you will be missed. To do what you have done for as long as you have is unbelievable. I applaud your contributions to the forum and the time you dedicated to it.

As everyone is saying, thank you Bill for doing the grand job you did. I knoe Dave will do his best to fill your shoes. He was a good choice for a replacement. My hats off to both of you.

Hi Bill!
I'm new here but would just like to say, what you've been doing is really great!
And judging by the comments, I'm correct.
Hope you received some enjoyment from it all!
Enjoy your well deserved retirement.
