On
September 22nd, First Farmers Bank & Trust sponsored, and Wabash
branch manager Kathy Jones attended, a special event held to promote
needed gym and pool renovations at White’s Residential and Family
Center. What made this event so special was that Clyde Lovellette,
former coach and teacher at White’s and also an NBA Hall of Fame
Member, was the featured speaker. Lovellette was the first basketball
player in history to play on NCAA, Olympic, and NBA championship teams,
and during his career scored 11,947 points and grabbed 6,663 rebounds.
The evening began with a welcome and prayer from White’s CEO, followed
by dinner, and a speech from Lovellette. After dinner, Clyde stayed for
a picture and autograph session. His attendance truly made for a great
evening, and First Farmers Bank & Trust was proud to sponsor this
event.
