I'd also like to give a shout out to Mike Volker, who won the award for BC Angel Investor of the Year. Entrepreneurial startup success and Angels go hand in hand, so it's important to recognize that, too. But, on a more human side of things, Mike spoke eloquently about recently departed Don Ricks. Don apparently was a shoe-in for the award ("investing $50K in over 30 startups over the years"), but his biggest legacy was Mike's testament: "When Don was with us, he was a great Angel investor. Now, he's a great Angel."
