patron/honorary member of the association

I've done a bit of googling and apart from "meritorious" I also found a sprinkling of honorary members and patrons. I might, personally, swing towards patron.

Meritorious Member

The adjective "meritorious" means praiseworthy.

I have used the search engine Google and have found out that the title "Meritorious Member" is written in 132 English websites. Here is an example of its usage:
"At the spring banquet a faculty member is awarded a certificate of recognition as Most Meritorious Member."
