Dave is relatively new to the First Farmers & Merchants team having started here as Branch Manager in June 2021, but is not a rookie to lending. He has been doing Ag and Commercial Lending in South Dakota and Minnesota for 39 years! He and his wife Lori live in Sioux Falls near their kids and grandkids and enjoy barbershop music, football, and of course, tractor pulls of all types. Dave is anxious to get to know you and see how he can help you reach your financial goals.

Cris is your connection for any Real Estate, Consumer, or Ag loans that you may need. She has worked for First Farmers & Merchants Bank for over 17 years and has worked as a credit analyst in the ag department, and other roles at the bank but has found her niche as a lending officer. Cris volunteers on the Dollars for Scholars Committee and is also a Bookin' Buddy at the Luverne Grade School and also helps out her husband and brother-in-law on their farm with planting and harvesting. To relax, Cris likes riding motorcycle and vacationing. If you've found the perfect spot to start a farm of your own, she can help you with your needs that fit the farm. Contact her today!
