On Friday, February 5th, Tom Kress, the President of the Rockford Community Market at Associated Bank, received the key to the city.

Kress and Associated Bank helped open the Family Peace Center, says Rockford Mayor Tom McNamara. As well as creating bridge loans for local small businesses during the pandemic before they got state and federal aids, Kress also played a part in helping the city with the Northern Illinois Community Development Corporation.

Kress is set to retire from Associated Bank at the end of February.  Read the full story HERE.
