A few years back I had the good fortune to visit $233 million Pittsford Federal Credit Union's Mendon, N.Y., branch, just seven minutes from my home. President/CEO Bill Martin, a CUES member, showed me how his cashless branches work (the CU's other branch, the CU's headquarters in nearby Pittsford, also operates without cash) and sent this editor back home with new insights into the topics I write about. (Thanks again, Bill!)
