Good morning, That is correct. There is no reciprocity between the states for life memberships. This is a General Society ruling and not one of the states. A member with life membership may join another state as a dual member but is required to pay dues to the new state. I am a life member in MA but a dual member with Florida and have to pay dues to the Florida Society.
