Letters From Leton: Lessons In Longevity
After a year like this, it is good to step back for a few minutes and realize that the tellers, loan officers, bookkeepers and others who have worked at our Bank over the past 132 years also faced trials and troubles.

Her stove and cabinets were situated so that she could reach (she is not a tall lady) her spices by stretching and standing on her tiptoes. Each year she made her famous pumpkin pies. I couldn’t… Read more »
Letters From Leton: Best If Used By (Part 2)
My last share was one that most banks or businesses wouldn’t want to hear about themselves. Employees lack of attention to detail.

The same week I experienced… Read more »
