MANCHESTER, N.H.–America’s Credit Union Museum (ACUM) has dedicated its main exhibit hall in honor of Gordon A. Simmons, the former credit union CEO who chaired the museum board for more than a decade during its formative years.
“A passionate advocate for preserving the credit union movement's history, Simmons’ dedication and significant gift towards future expansion and upkeep of exhibition spaces made the hall naming possible,” the Museum said.
The "Gordon A. Simmons Exhibit Hall" officially is now open. Prior to retirement, Simmons was CEO of Service Credit Union in New Hampshire.
‘Profound Gratitude’
“With profound gratitude, we dedicate this exhibit space in honor of Gordon A. Simmons,” said Stephanie Smith, executive director of ACUM. “His extraordinary generosity and strategic guidance paved the way for unprecedented growth and success. His enduring legacy as a dedicated steward of our mission continues to inspire and elevate our organization.”
Added Simmons in remarks at the museum, “May the America’s Credit Union Museum continue to prosper in its historic role as the site of the roots of all American credit unions.”
The museum said the quote is also embodied on the commemorative plaque, along with the Museum’s dedication to him and his photo.
