From Kansas to Montana and back again, Denise Bonner has been a steady force in the credit union world for over 30 years—including 25 years with Wakarusa Valley Credit Union, which later became part of Envista. She’s worn many hats: leading Richmond City Employees Credit Union in ’91, guiding Tribute Employees FCU in Great Falls, and navigating Wakarusa Valley through every twist, turn, and merger along the way. Through it all, Denise has led with kindness, consistency, and the kind of calm reliability that makes everything feel a little more manageable. She’s the one who shows up early, checks in on your weekend, and somehow always has a snack ready—like a work mom, but cooler. Denise, thank you for being a rock through the changes and a genuinely good human through it all. We’re so glad your path led here. Happy 25-year anniversary! (fb)

We enjoyed having 1st District Congressman Tracey Mann stop by our Iowa Street branch in Lawrence last week! Our team had a great conversation with him about financial service issues being discussed in Washington—things that could impact credit unions and the members we serve. We appreciate the chance to share what matters to our team and our community. #CommunityMatters #CreditUnionStrong #LawrenceKS (fb)
