On June 6th, we celebrate Charter Day, which provides us an opportunity for us to look back and appreciate all of the hard work and dedication that has been accomplished since those early days.

It all started with a toolbox (which is iconic for us today and can be seen in the lobbies of all our branches), $50 and a shared vision of then ten Chevrolet Foundry workers, who each wanted to improve the financial lives of not only themselves, but also their coworkers. Even though assets have grown from $50 to nearly $800 million, and with the GM plant no longer in operation, that vision is no less important today than it was back on June 6, 1963.

The ten men who signed the charter of incorporation were James G. Capell, Paul R. Catlin, James R. Ellis, Harold H. Guile, Earl M. Jackson, Carl L. MacDonald, Darrell Mills, Max M. Ryan, Frank E. Sequin and John Zakarauskas. Earl Jackson, who was the last remaining charter member, passed away this January. When we would visit, he reminded me about those early days, how SeaComm has become so very much more than they had ever dreamed. Even though the name has changed a number of times since the signing of the charter, that is a great testament to all those who have built upon the very foundation in which he and those other men believed in.

As we continue to evolve and build upon the vision that the ten employees of GM dreamed about, staying true to “People Helping People”, we are truly humbled in what they decided to start building all those years ago. I know they would all be proud of what we have become and continue to do for our 56,740 plus members and the communities in which we do business.

The incredible responsibility started by the original ten signors is respected and continued today by our Board of Directors, management and dedicated staff. We are committed to carrying on such a rich history, while continuing the journey that was started more than six decades ago.

President & Chief Executive Officer

After a milestone 40-year career, long-time SeaComm Facilities Specialist Tim King has announced his retirement. King is one of SeaComm’s longest serving employees and has been an instrumental part of the upkeep and maintenance of the branches.
“Tim had been a dedicated employee for 40 years, and during that time, he was constantly focused on ensuring that our building and grounds were kept up to meet company standards, said President and Chief Executive Officer Scott A. Wilson. “He took pride in every task he undertook, each and every day. I wish Tim all the best in his well-deserved retirement years.”
King started with SeaComm in 1986 as a Courier and eventually became the Facilities Specialist, working hard behind the scenes and taking great pride in the appearance of all nine branch locations.
“Retirement is bittersweet for me because I’m letting go of something that’s been a big part of my life,” said King. “My 40 years at SeaComm must have been okay because it makes me emotional when I think about retiring. SeaComm’s been good to me and I appreciate that. Looking ahead, I have no major plans other than to relax and enjoy life.”
