22 legendary bankers recognized for half century of service
In 1971, there were two successful Apollo moon missions; All in the Family debuted and the final episode of The Ed Sullivan Show aired; the 26th Amendment lowering the voting age to 18 was ratified; the NASDAQ debuted; Starbucks was founded; Walt Disney World and Texas Stadium opened; and Southwest Airlines took flight.
It was also the year that 22 dedicated Texas bankers began their remarkable careers. To honor their half-century or more of service, the Texas Bankers Foundation will present them with the 50-Year Banker Awards during TBA’s Annual Convention.
