Although all three have individually been recognized before by the NH Bar, current Bar Association President James L. Tenn Jr. decided to present them with a collective award to highlight the "force for public good that their enduring and close friendship represents. Their service is exemplary because of its duration of more than five decades, and the profound influence that service has had on those who have known them," said Tenn. "Such service is extraordinary and these individuals deserve to be honored." He noted that the three Manchester attorneys, all leaders in their law firms and in many community organizations, get together almost every month for breakfast and, through the years, have collaborated on many professionalism and community leadership initiatives.
