FORUM Credit Union Honors Retired Teammates

FORUM honors three longstanding teammates who have retired in the past three months: Richard Jackson, Torrie Thompson, and Beverly Balke. Each employee had a celebratory paver ceremony in the FORUM Headquarters Courtyard to commemorate their time at FORUM.

Richard Jackson’s retirement celebration was on November 4, 2024. He was hired in August 2004 and was instrumental in FORUM's Indirect Lending Department. For 20 years he helped expand FORUM's dealer partner footprint and built FORUM's reputation as a quality financing partner. As a pilot during his personal time, he provided aerial photography of the HQ campus over the years. He is also known for his grilling skills and fed hundreds of FORUM teammates at Spirit of FORUM events over the years.

Torrie Thompson’s paver ceremony was held on December 5, 2024. Hired in October 1997, Torrie provided 27 years of exceptional service. Torrie was a mainstay at FORUM’s East Washington and Brookville Road branches and members benefitted from her expertise, her genuine care for others, and for the professional service she was well known for every day. She made a difference for the thousands of members she served, the teammates she impacted, and the contributions she made to the growth and success of the Credit Union.

Beverly Balke’s paver ceremony and celebration was held on January 28, 2025. Hired in April 2006, Bev’s 19 years of service left a lasting impact on both members and teammates alike. Having spent most of her time with FORUM leading the Noblesville branch, Bev became known as a leader who developed her teammates into leaders. She passionately served the Noblesville community, helped thousands of members live their financial dreams, and mentored numerous FORUM teammates throughout her two decades.
