Wow, 12 yrs old!  Here's to seeing CADO around for another 12 x 12!! 

Thank you Roy, for all you've done, not only for creating a place where adjusters can network with each other, share knowledge, learn from one another, but for also creating the "CADO Family".

You have done a wonderful thing for the industry, and I just want to thank  you for your commitment, devotion, patience and foresight!

Thank you for being a pioneer and carving out a network in unchartered lands and giving us the ability to communicate and share with each other.

What can one say. Over the years I have found work, friends and knowledge.

thanks Roy.

Well, Roy  this has been a long and seemingly impossible task that you have accomplished.

Having been associated with you since '95 when you started, it has been akin to watching a child being raised. First the crawl, then the toddle, and the walk and finally the run.

You have gone beyond my and everyone eles's expectations in the raising of the CADO baby. And all that anyone can say is KUDO'S, Congratulations, and  Well Done.

For those that have not been here since the beginning, just compare the growth of this site to a Model "A" Ford, vs a 2007 Corvette.

Thank you seems like such a small word to express how much you are appreicated by we older players.

Happy Birthday CADO!

I agree with the others. The site is a great resource for all of us. I have learned alot about adjusting just from reading CADO.

You have done a great job, Roy

Congratulations Roy. You are a fine example of what can be done when one refuses to quit regardless how tempting it can be. I have learned so much by watching the way you have grown CADO thought its different phases of growth. You somehow knew when let things take their course and when to actively direct the direction of CADO.  You acted in the manner that you felt was best of the industry and let the chips fall where they may. I thank you for your patience’s and understanding over the years.  There will never be a concrete way to measure the impact you have had on the industry up to this point but I know it would have been hard for HRI to have survived to reach the point we are today without the information that flowed through CADO that helped enable us to learn and survive in this industry during a time of great change. Happy 12^th birthday CADO.

I joined CADO right after hearing about it, left it for a while, (we were really busy) and then came back after seeing what an influence the sight might have on adjusters and unity of same. I met Roy for the first time at the first CADO convention. I saw a man who was not going to allow anyone to dissuade him from doing what he felt best for the adjusting industry. Has CADO made a difference, sure it has. A big difference. Will it continue to make a difference, sure it will. 

Roy, I commend you for your efforts to help this industry in any way that you could. You are most loved by many, including myself. Twelve years, who woulda thunk that. Congrats. I have made many friend through CADO and have enjoyed meeting many of you. Lets continue with our effort  and help Roy to make this THE adjusters meeting place.

I stumbled upon CADO in February 1998, three weeks after I quit my staff job at Nationwide to pursue catadjusting as an independent without the every other week pay check standing in my way. Within a week, I had work. Roy had taken the resume I submitted to CADO and forwarded it to the Bud Trice, the Crawford cat manager. The time was right because there was immediate work.

Over the years this website has helped me form a network of friends and colleagues. Without this connection to each other we would be sitting in our offices, making a few phone calls, sending out correspondence, watching the weather channel, and wondering what was going on without any real time opportunity to see the trends in the industry.

Thanks, Roy. Did you ever suspect what your little "Disaster Page" would become?
