Renasant Bank makes commitment
to the community through service
Linda Jordan, Lorrie Shaw, Renasant Bank, Pickens
County president, Mark Williams, Georgia Division, regional
president helping out at the high school football concession
stand.
Mark Williams, regional pres
ident of Renasant Bank’s Geor
gia division is supporting
Pickens County High School and
all schools in the communities
they serve. “We didn’t come all
this way to not be part of the
community,” he said.
Renasant Bank acquired the
banking operations of Crescent
Bank and Trust of Jasper, Ga. in
a Federal Deposit Corporation
assisted transaction.
Renasant Bank has a history
of strength. Founded in 1904 in
Tupelo, Mississippi, Renasant is
one of the South’s oldest finan
cial institutions. With the acqui
sition of Crescent Bank,
Renasant Bank have over 75 lo
cations in Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi and Tennessee.
Williams will lead the transi
tion of the 11 former Crescent
branches and said that Renasant
has a desire to become part of the
community and the local busi
ness infrastructure. “We like this
community and we know how to
bank communities such as these.
This is a win/win situation.”
With multiple services such as
traditional banking and mortgage
lending, Renasant will be intro-

ducing additional products and
services such as wealth manage
ment, financial service, insur
ance, trust services and much
more. Because of the quality of
employees and the size of the or
ganization, Renasant is well po
sitioned to deliver all the
products of a mega bank-bank,
but still have the personal touch
of a community bank.
While making solid loans,
safeguarding deposits and pro
viding personalized service
might be just boring traditional
banking to some, it’s how Renas
ant has remained strong through
out both crises and calm.
Williams said, “We are huge
on local decision making. Build
ing relationships, helping indi
viduals, families and businesses
reach their financial dreams.
Supporting the local community
has always been the company’s
calling.”
Williams said Renasant will
be involved and committed to all
aspects of the community. The
bank recognizes the value of
local employees, local non-prof
its and the community.
Just last week, Williams was
seen working the concession
stand dining a local high school
football game.

The Pickens County Planning Commission’s

I OMEGA-3 Fish Oil SUPPLEMENT —
Omega Swirl 90% more Bio-Available
than standard oil.
A recent clinical study conducted by the Centre for Nutritional Studies found
Barlean’s Omega Swirl to be 90% more bio-available than standard fish oil.
Because Barlean’s proprietary Swirl technology significantly reduces the size
of the fish oil molecules, it allows the oil to more efficiently pass through the
intestinal wall and into the bloodstream. In fact, the total percentage of oil that
reached the bloodstream was 9-times greater with Omega Swirl than with the
same dose of standard fish oil.
