FLORENCE — Florence Bank announced that Julie Duffé was recently selected as a recipient of its President’s Award for 2018.

The President’s Award was established by the bank in 1995, affording employees the annual opportunity to nominate their peers for an honor that recognizes outstanding performance, customer service, and overall contribution to Florence Bank. Duffé was nominated by numerous colleagues.
