Celebrating Our GEPAR Living Legends
On August 21, 2026, GEPAR gathered for a special celebration honoring five remarkable members whose dedication to our Association and the real estate industry spans 45 years or more.
Hosted by Ben Williams, the GEPAR Living Legends celebration was a meaningful opportunity to recognize the commitment, leadership, and lasting impact of Sally Aubin, Trella Driggers, Max Weber, Elizabeth Leal, and Dan Olivas.
Each Living Legend has a unique story shaped by decades of experiences, relationships, milestones, and contributions to the real estate profession. To help share those stories, each honoree participated in a special podcast video interview, giving members an opportunity to hear firsthand about their journeys, memories, and the changes they have witnessed throughout their careers. The interviews were played during the celebration, bringing their personal stories to life and making the event even more memorable.
These five Living Legends represent more than decades of service—they represent the history, tradition, and spirit of GEPAR. Their dedication has helped shape our Association and strengthen the profession for generations of REALTORS® to come.
GEPAR is proud to celebrate these extraordinary members and, as Ben Williams often reminds us, to “give people their flowers while they are still here to receive them.”
Congratulations to our 2026 GEPAR Living Legends! Your legacy continues to inspire us all.
