In 1965, Sharlene Simmermon was, for the most part, your average 21-year-old. She loved the Beatles, thought the Chevy Impala was one cool car and owned her fair share of bell bottomed trousers.

She was known as smart, professional, courteous. When she landed her first full-time job as a bookkeeper for Wells Fargo in Rushville (then known as Rush County National Bank), she had high hopes for a long and successful career. Just how long, she wasn’t sure.

Flash forward more than four decades to today: Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE: WFC) is announcing that Simmermon, a Business Banking Assistant for Wells Fargo Rushville, will retire after 44 years of service.

“During a career that has spanned four decades, Sharlene has excelled at delivering outstanding service to our customers and our communities,” Terry Smith, president for Wells Fargo in Rushville said.

“Our customers and our team members value Sharlene’s strong background in community banking, her energy for community involvement and her focus on satisfying all of our customers’ financial services needs and helping them succeed financially,” he added.

“On behalf of Wells Fargo, I’d like to thank Sharlene for her dedication, her professionalism and her many years of service. Our team at Wells Fargo will miss her, yet we wish her the very best of luck as she begins her retirement,” Smith concluded.

Simmermon joined the former Rush County National Bank in 1965 as a bookkeeper. She joined the Business Banking team in 1985.

She volunteers for “Letters from Home,” a program that coordinates sending hand-made cards and notes to U. S. military servicemen and women overseas.
