HARAHAN, La.–During a virtual annual meeting and convention, six people were inducted into the Louisiana Credit Union Hall of Fame.
Jointly sponsored by the Louisiana CU League and the Louisiana Credit Union Foundation, “this prestigious program has been established in order to recognize the valuable leadership, commitment, dedication, and contributions of credit union professionals and volunteers throughout the state,” the league said.
The 2020 inductees include:
- Judy Cox of Meritus CU in Lafayette
- Susie Fair of the Louisiana Credit Union League in Harahan
- Katie Pilcher of Ouachita Valley FCU in West Monroe
- Connie Roy of Meritus CU in Lafayette
- Margaret Tanner of Ascension CU in Gonzales

The Louisiana league reported a $500 donation on behalf of the inductee was made to the Louisiana Credit Union Foundation to help foster educational programs for credit unions as well as monetary support sufficient to provide resources during times of natural disasters.
To date, more than 100 trailblazers have been inducted into the Louisiana Credit Union Hall of Fame raising more than $55,000 for the Louisiana Foundation since its inception.
"Louisiana credit unions are changing lives. This Hall of Fame program allows us to share these stories, map our future, and honor our traditions. Inductees inspire future generations to push boundaries and create breakthroughs that will positively impact our movement statewide," said Bob Gallman, LCUL president/CEO.
