For years, the Colorado Bar Association (CBA) has recognized members who have had the distinction of practicing law for fifty years. When that milestone is reached, combined with active membership in the CBA for the most recent ten years, those members are conferred the status of "HonorLife Member." This membership classification carries with it lifetime exemption from further CBA dues, plus a certificate of recognition presented at an annual dinner event in Denver. Recent inductees to this ring of fame are listed on these two pages.

The CBA salutes these members for their careers of service to the legal profession. Thank you for your participation in the CBA.
