The Lifetime Achievement Award was created to recognize members who have contributed to the life and health insurance industry throughout their careers as well as contributing to their community. As insurance agents became the primary financial advisors to their clients, the scope of the award broadened. In 2004, the award was renamed the I. David Cohen Lifetime Achievement Award in honor of David Cohen who originally conceived the award and for his many years of service to NAIFA-Columbus. Duane A. Borcherding, CLU, ChFC, RICP was selected as the 2022 recipient and was recognized by NAIFA-Columbus Past President, Cort R. Bradbury (pictured with Duane below), during this year's luncheon on December 14, 2022. 

NAIFA-Columbus Members and guests met for a Membership Luncheon at Brio Polaris Grille. We were joined by John Fitzpatrick ALMI, ACS. John is the Regional Vice President for John Hancock in the Ohio and Upstate NY regions.
