Congratulations to Jo Alvis, Manager/CEO, on her recent retirement! Jo dedicated 33 years to serving ACIPCO Federal Credit Union and its members, and has been a huge part of the success the Credit Union has seen. Jo spent the first eight years of her career at various credit unions around Birmingham, working her way from the teller line to loan officer. She began her tenure with AFCU in June 1991 as a loan officer, quickly working her way up to Loan Manager, then Assistant Manager/COO. After Mike Harrell’s unexpected passing in 2015, she was named the Manager/CEO, and continued Mike’s legacy of member service and personal touch with AFCU members. Despite the big shoes to fill, she did so with unmatched loyalty and dedication. She has been, and will continue to be greatly missed by the employees and members. We wish her the best and a long and happy retirement!
I had the great privilege to work alongside Jo and Mike for many years, and I hope to put to good use everything they taught me. The phrase “WWMD…What Would Mike Do?” still runs through my mind, as it often did Jo’s, when presented with a decision. I greatly appreciate this opportunity, and my wish is to carry on their legacy of leading the Credit Union into continued success. However, this is only possible with the excellent staff and Board of Directors that we have. Their dedication to the Credit Union and to the
members is what makes ACIPCO Federal Credit Union what it is today.
