I applaud your selection of Jim Blaine as Credit Union Times' 2005 CEO of the Year! What a fitting tribute and article to one of the great leaders of our movement. As one of over 20 former SECU branch managers who have gone on to serve as credit union CEOs, I know very well the positive impact Jim has had on so many, many people. The stories could fill a year's worth of your magazine. My wife is fond of telling folks that with Sam there is God, Momma and Jim Blaine. I owe so much to the man I can't say I disagree. Sam Whitehurst CEO Summit Credit Union Greensboro, N.C.
