Celebrating 50 Years at Southfork Ranch

by | May 5, 2026

Fifty years is more than a milestone—it’s a legacy built over time, shaped by relationships, guided by purpose, and strengthened through trust.

Guests at the CFM 50th Anniversary CelebrationRecently, we had the privilege of celebrating 50 years of Carter Financial Management at Southfork Ranch, surrounded by the people who made it all possible—our clients, colleagues, peers, and respected members of the profession. Each person in attendance has played a role in our story, and this celebration was as much about honoring you as it was about reflecting on our journey.

The evening represented more than a single anniversary. It was a moment where several meaningful milestones came together:

  • 50 years of Carter Financial Management
  • 53 years in the profession for Bill Carter
  • A forward-looking transition as Tyler Russell, Jonathan Meaney, and Aaron Hays step into leadership roles, helping guide the next chapter

That blend of reflection and anticipation made the night especially significant. It allowed us to look back with gratitude while confidently looking ahead to the future we are building together.

We are deeply thankful to everyone who traveled from near and far to join us. Your presence made the evening unforgettable. Seeing so many embrace the western spirit of the night added a warmth and personality that made Southfork Ranch feel like home.

Most importantly, we are grateful for the trust you have placed in us over the years. That trust is the foundation of everything we do—and it is not something we take lightly.

As we move forward, we do so with appreciation for where we’ve been and a strong sense of purpose for where we’re going.

Here’s to the next 50 years.

Anna is a highly experienced Office Administrator who joined Carter Financial Management in 2023. With over 25 years in private equity and commercial real estate, she brings a rich background and wealth of expertise to the team.
