Associates Testimonials

Nancy Howley  
Mortgage Loan Originator 

"When you join Home State, it's not just a place to work. You are joining a family of professionals that are offering you an opportunity to share in what it has taken over 100 years to build - community trust and respect. Of all the benefits Home State offers me, I most appreciate the community recognition; if I were to describe my co-workers in one word it would be supportive!"

Debbie Arsenty

Accounting Associate

"I love working at Home State Bank. I have been here for over 17 years and have been given the opportunity to advance in my career. One of the things that makes the bank a great place to work is the feeling of being a part of a family. I feel this way because of not only the length of time I have worked here, but my co-workers as well. There have been changes to the banking industry over the years, but one thing remains the same...that hometown feeling of banking with Home State Bank. The personal touch is still very important to Home State, and I am proud to say I work here."
