FSB promotes two

FRANKLIN — Franklin Savings Bank recently promoted Renee Gilpatric to senior underwriter and residential processing officer, and Leisha Havey to loan servicing officer.

“This is a wonderful accomplishment for Renee and Leisha, and we are pleased to recognize them for their dedication and commitment to the bank,” said Jan Bradley, vice president, loan operations officer.

Gilpatric joined FSB in 1996 as a part-time switchboard operator. Since then, she has advanced into positions including mortgage processor and junior mortgage underwriter. In her new role, she will continue to obtain, prepare and review documents for originating and processing of residential loans. Her civic engagement includes volunteering with Granite United Way’s annual Day of Caring events. A resident of Danbury, Gilpatric enjoys hiking, kayaking, scrapbooking, crafting, and spending time with family.

“It’s hard to believe I began my career with FSB almost 25 years ago,” she said. “During my adolescent years, I often heard about how the bank was a strong supporter of the community. My family also did business with the bank; therefore, I felt it would be a great place to start my career.”

Havey joined FSB in 1998 as a part-time receptionist, then transitioned into a full-time role. She later moved into loan processing and loan servicing. In her role, she will continue to perform loan processing functions including ensuring the integrity and accuracy of loan documents, insurance monitoring, loan set up, loan maintenance, and quality control. She is a past board member of the Parent’s Association at Tilton School and Saint Paul’s CYO Program. A resident of Franklin, Havey enjoys camping and spending time with family.

“I lived in Franklin most of my life and always heard that Franklin Savings Bank was a wonderful place to work,” said Havey. “I am glad I decided to pursue an opportunity with FSB. It’s been a rewarding experience and has provided me with many opportunities for professional growth.”
