Craig DeYoung, well-known in the Charlotte County community, marks a significant milestone as he celebrates 30 years at Crews Bank & Trust. DeYoung, whose journey from the lumber yard to the banking sector reflects resilience and adaptability, shares insights into his remarkable career. Among his most memorable moments, DeYoung recounted the challenges posed by two major hurricanes, Charley in 2004 and Ian in 2022. "Those times certainly represent some of the darkest times for my family, friends, and coworkers," he recalled. "However, in both cases, I saw my co-workers, as well as the community, pull together and do tremendous things." | |
I am a great believer in luck, and I find that the harder I work, the more I have of it. Thomas Jefferson | |

Three friends die in a car accident and they go to an orientation in heaven. They are all asked, "When you are in your casket and friends and family are mourning you, what would you like to hear them say about you?"
The first guy says, "I would like to hear them say that I was a great doctor of my time, and a great family man."
The second guy says, "I would like to hear that I was a wonderful husband and school teacher which made a huge difference in our children of tomorrow.
The last guy replies, "I would like to hear them say... Look, he's Moving!"
