THE GARY GRAY AUTO THEFT ACHIEVEMENT
AWARD
In 2003 NICB teamed up with the Northern Chapter of
WSATI to give the first annual NICB/WSATI special achievement award for
outstanding achievements in the war on Auto Theft by an individual or a
team, either Law Enforcement or Insurance.
NICB through Area 3 Directors of Operation Ralph Lumpkin
and Robert Jones will obtain a plaque and a cash donation will be
made to the charity of the recipient. The plaque will be awarded
to the recipient at the annual WSATI conference. The award will be
presented by NICB Area 3 Directors or their designee. Any member
or team in any of the 7 WSATI Chapters would be eligible and nominations
and synopsis should be received by August 1, of the conference year.
Gary was one of 4 or 5 investigators from around the
San Francisco Bay area that had a meeting in 1970 to discuss auto theft
problems in the area and 2 years later WSATI Northern Chapter was formed.
He was a real pioneer in WSATI. Over the several years that Gary
was a member of WSATI he served in every office and was the current Past
President when he passed away in 2003. He was also a dedicated member
of NICB for over 10 years.
