Bern, Please accept my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. I will always appreciate the opportunity your dad provided me to join the bank in 1986 and for his leadership in the banking industry and the community as well. He was a fine man and a true gentleman. Bob Bailey

So sorry for your loss of your father. Mr Mahon was one of the last of “the greatest generation”. I remember him so very well throughout my life. He was a solid rock in our church and a source of leadership over the years. He was quick with a joke and a kind word to everyone. I will always remember him. I am sure he and Lacy are dancing in heaven.

Dear Laura, Bern, Becca and families, Walton survived a wonderful group of lifelong friends for many years. I am sure there was a huge and joyous celebration awaiting his arrival to Heaven. Even so, his smile, his sound advice, his compassion for others, his humble gratitude and subtle humor will remain in my heart as part of the legacy he left behind. Walton was always one of my favorites. I pray that God will give you strength and sustain you until we all meet sgain. Sincerely, Lynn Blatt Jordan
