I invite our members and residents to stop by any of our local branches and speak with the teams to ask any questions they may have.”
Denise Ward, CEO of Lauhoff Employees Credit Union, says, “We are thankful for each one of our members over the past 71 years. As the doors close for the final time, at our current location, on October 30, 2019, we are excited about the doors that will open at the three Landmark locations.”
