THE BRANDON C, WHITE JR. FAMILY # meet Brandon White Jr. our administrative vice president As administrative vice president of CMB&T Brandon's primary responsibility is super vision of all loan functions and marketing' activities, but this description hardly outlines the many areas - inside and outside the bank - Influenced by his decisions. Probably not the least of which was our recently completed remodeling project, a two-year program that was not without some major White suggestions and directions. Brandon began his career with the Dexter Savings Bank and later, through merger, was employed by the Ann Arbor Bank. In June 1966 he left Ann Arbor to become executive vice, president of Central National Bank, a position he resigned in February 1969 to join CNB&T, In addition to his various assignments, Brandon has completed a number of banking educational programs and study courses including the Graduate School of Banking at University of Wisconsin. He is presently pursuing the three year Stonier Graduate School of Banking program at Rutgers $1 University. A native of Pinckney, Brandon graduated from high school there and later attended the Unl- . versity of Michigan. Since coming to St. Johns he has been very active in community affairs * and his memberships include Rotary club, St. Johns Area Chamber of Commerce, budget committee of the United Fund and chairman of the Doctors Search Committee, He also serves as a director on the board of King Arthur's Court mdbile home park in DeWitt. Brandon and his wife, Annette, have three children; Brandon HI, an eighth grader and Mark, a sixth grader. Both boys attend Rodney B. Wilson Junior High while daughter Michelle is in the fourth grade at Swegles School, The Whites are camping and snowmoblling enthusiasts ' and they pursue these hobbies when dad canget away from the bank and mom can get time from her desk as society editor for Clinton County News. CLINTON NATIONAL As "a CNB&T veep, Brandon has a busy Jlfe but as can be readily seen this activity centers around his work and his community.
