Branch Manager Nancy Fratt is retiring after 35 years of working at First Interstate Bank. A release from First Interstate said they would like to thank Fratt for her years of service. She started working at First Interstate in the fall of 1986. She held many different positions throughout the years before being promoted to the Retail Manager of the Bigfork branch in February 2021.
The release said Fratt was instrumental in assisting clients during the acquisition of the Flathead Bank of Bigfork in 2016, and she has worked tirelessly since then taking care of clients and through her involvement in the Bigfork community. The release said Fratt is a wealth of knowledge and will be greatly missed by her many loyal clients and longtime co-workers. In retirement she looks forward to spending time with her family – enjoying her grandkids, relaxing with her husband at their cabin, or enjoying the sunshine of Arizona with her dad.
First Interstate will be hosting an open house in honor of Fratt on December 30 at their Bigfork branch from 4-6 p.m.
