                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 17, 2016

  Mr. REED. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Gary Grinnell on 
his recent appointment to the Board of Directors at the National 
Association of Federal Credit Unions.
  Mr. Grinnell currently serves as President and Chief Executive 
Officer of Corning Credit Union, located in my hometown of Corning, New 
York. Prior to this appointment, he served as Vice President and Chief 
Operating Officer. Mr. Grinnell has nearly 25 years of experience in 
the financial services industry and has held numerous positions 
involving internal audit, consumer and real estate lending operations, 
risk management, and member services.
  Mr. Grinnell serves on NAFCU's Legislative Committee and has 
testified before Congress on behalf of the Association. He has a deep 
understanding of legislative and regulatory issues facing credit unions 
across the county. I am confident that his expertise and years of 
experience will benefit the NAFCU Board and local credit unions for 
years to come.
  Mr. Grinnell has lived in the Corning community for 18 years, where 
he and his wife Melissa have raised their three children. Mr. 
Grinnell's commitment to our community is evident by his leadership on 
the Southern Tier Economic Growth Board of Directors and the Chemung 
County Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Gary Grinnell and 
wishing him the best of luck in his new role on the NAFCU Board of 
Directors.
