“Honestly, I can’t believe it’s been that long!” said Annette. “It’s a really nice recognition, and one I appreciate and am proud of.”
“I have met so many wonderful people throughout my career,” Colleen said. “Banking just fit from the first day I started, and the past 42 years have provided me the opportunity to grow in a fast-paced, rewarding, and challenging career.”
“It is truly an honor,” Jody said. “I have learned so much over my banking career, and I am fortunate to have had — and to continue to have — exceptional mentors in my life. I’m also grateful for the opportunity to pay it forward with the interns and younger generation coming into North Shore Bank. It’s a fabulous place to work with genuine, heartfelt, and hard-working employees and leadership.”
“It is very nice to be honored by the WBA and North Shore Bank for my contribution to the banking industry,” Linda said. “So much has changed in the industry since I began, back in 1984.”
And Natalie said: “I am sincerely grateful for this recognition. It also gives me the opportunity to extend my thankfulness to some of the finest leaders in banking — Jude Lengell, Cindy Hundt, and Jan Konkol — for their help and support over the years.”
