An early story from the Bank of Vernon in Vernon, Alabama, as told by its chairman and CEO, @troutguide81611. Thank you, @John_R_Ramage for the connection and wonderful time with our families at the game in Tuscaloosa.
My dad celebrated 61 years affiliated and still working for the @CommSpiritBank this past weekend!
He is the definition of a CommunityBanker, caring , attentive, hardworking and full of character and integrity!
Thanks for the foundation you built dad and here’s to the years ahead!

Former @ICBA Chairman Jeff Gerhart was the quintessential #CommunityBanker!
He proved that even a small bank, can make a tremendous impact for the industry!
I was grateful to get to meet with him and have his sound counsel when attempting to protect the community banking voice in my own state in 2011/2012 timeframe.
He will forever be remembered as one of our associations great leaders.
Prayers for his family but hope and encouragement that he is at rest with Jesus and we shall see him again!
