In 2005, Monska was named to the Florence Bank President’s Club. The honor recognizes superior performance, customer service and overall contribution to Florence Bank. 

“We are thrilled that Jean will be taking over the reins of our Easthampton branch,” said President and CEO Kevin Day. “Jean has built great relationships with customers and community members in Easthampton, and we know she has the skill and experience to lead.”

Sedlak became assistant vice president and assistant branch manager in 1999. She was promoted to vice president branch manager in 2021 and is retiring after 22 years of service.
