Desiree Reilly celebrated her 25th anniversary at Community Savings Bank on Friday, September 27. She is now a member of the large group of employees who have worked at the bank for 25 years or more. The day was celebrated with a cake and well wishes from her fellow employees. Desiree started her career with Community in 1999, shortly before having her daughter. Her dad asked for an application for her when he became a Community customer. She started in the teller department and has stayed there for her entire career because she enjoyed working with customers and getting to know them so much. Ms. Reilly has been a teller at the main office and also spent many years working solely at the drive-up. Today, she is one of Community’s teller supervisors and can usually be found in the main lobby where she also assists in the training of the bank’s new tellers. Desiree said, “I started here just before my daughter was born. I’ve grown up here and been through big life changes. I felt supported and cared for and am very grateful that I get to work somewhere like Community. I have made many great friends here.” “Desiree is a valued Community employee. We appreciate her dedication over the past 25 years” said Dane H. Cleven, president and chairman of the bank.
