Ebenhahn started at the credit union in 1942 while she was working as a bookkeeper at its sponsor, Farmers Union oil Co., now known as Cenex. At the time the credit union had $18,000 in deposits and focused on lending money to local farmers.
Ebenhahn said she does not contemplate retirement from the credit union, which has grown to a community charter with three branches. “Retirement isn’t for everyone,” she said. “As long as my head and body keep working, so will I.”
