FELLOW OF THE SOCIETY: The Fellow Award was instituted in 1967. All recipients of Honorary Memberships and Certificates of Merit prior to 1967 were made Fellows at that time. The title, Fellow of the Society, is an award given by the Board of Governors for service in the field of Speleology, whether in research, exploration, conservation, or administration. Emphasis usually is on continued service over a period of time. The total number of Fellows is limited to 10% of the Society membership. (Act 43-380 and Appendix AU)

Bill,
No award, or collection of words can tell you how good we feel when we pull in your driveway, knowing that you love cave diving as much as we do, maybe even more. Thanks for all you and your wife have done for us all.
Congratulations!
Congratulations Bill, a well deserved award! Thanks for all that you have done for the cave diving community.

a.k.a. Florida Cave Diver
Congratulations Bill!!!
Know we all appreciate what you have done over the years and hope it will continue for years to come.
Dive safe,
Scott & Celia
