“I am so honored to receive this award,” states Dr. Overton. “I joined the IARFC even though I was already participating in other financial planning organizations because I felt it offered unique benefits to its members and gave solid information on practice management and business consulting that was needed. The IARFC continues to offer these benefits to its members and it is my privilege to continue to participate in its activities.”
Nominations for the Founder’s award are accepted from IARFC members on an annual basis. These candidates along with their bios are compiled by the Founder’s Award Committee and then presented to the IARFC Board of Directors for voting. Dr. Overton was chosen at the annual Board Meeting this past March in Charlotte, NC.
