Her coworkers know they can always count on her for the back story on anything local, as she seems to know everyone and can piece together any timeline or family connection. Each day, Suzette shows how much she cares about our customers and the bank. She has faced challenges with strength and perseverance, and we are proud to have her as part of the BWD team! Congratulations, Suzette!
