Among this year's 2025 class of inductees was NAIFA-Ohio's Ben Feldman, who, along with this year's four additional honorees, joins last year's inaugural 2024 class for this distinct honor.  Feldman was described as developing a distinctive approach to selling life insurance that led to his own extraordinary success and created a path to success for countless other agents and advisors. In addition to setting sales records during his over 50 years at New York Life, he was known to have dedicated himself to mentoring a new generation of agents. Feldman was recognized with the 1984 John Newton Russell Memorial Award.  NAIFA's Hall of Fame was created to recognize and celebrate members whose extraordinary service and contributions represent the legacy of the most accomplished, impactful, and inspirational members of the NAIFA family.  Hall of Fame Selection Committee Chair, John A. Davidson, LUTCF, FSS described the 2025 Hall of Fame class as "...among the strongest, most influential leaders our association has known. Their contributions have had indelible impacts on NAIFA that continue to this day."  The Hall of Fame inductees will be recognized at the 2025 [Belong Awards Dinner](https://belong.naifa.org/awards-dinner), October 14th, in Arlington, VA.
