“Rick has been such a champion for the business community as well as a dedicated contributor to our commercial lending group and to our customers,” said Robert Davis, MVSB Senior Vice President, Commercial Lending Team Leader. “His industry knowledge and experience has greatly benefited our team and customers. He is a terrific colleague and will be truly missed.”

“During Rick’s time with MVSB, he played a central role in furthering our commercial lending efforts across all of our markets,” said Dan Osetek, Senior Vice President, Commercial Lending Team Leader, “Beyond his day-to-day successes, Rick always made time to collaborate with his colleagues and share the knowledge he learned throughout his banking career. Rick’s experience will certainly be missed, but he helped create an environment where collaboration prevails and built a culture of teamwork all of us can leverage.”

Rick’s efforts were recognized throughout his career – most notably he has been named Capital Access Program (CAP) Lender of the Year Award by the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority several times throughout his career. CAP provides access to financing for companies, especially start-ups and small businesses that may not be able to obtain conventional financing.
