Each year we look forward to welcoming new CoA members, yet we must also say an annual “farewell” to those members whose terms of service are ending. In 2019, eight commission members will be leaving, all of whom have contributed countless days and in innumerable ways to the work of the CoA. As they end their tenure, we give a big thank you to the following commissioners for their service:
