About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver pulled up to First Security State Bank and noticed an odd message scrawled on the door: ‘Your money is safest here when it’s not.’ Curious, he walked inside only to hear over the intercom, ‘Welcome to our new service—deposit your worries!’ The delivery driver laughed, thinking it was some prank. As he approached the counter, however, a friendly teller greeted him with a smile: 'Would you like to deposit your worries today?' The driver shook his head, but as he left, he heard someone whisper from behind: "Next time, maybe you'll bring us your bills too!" Back outside, a neighbor waved cheerfully and said, 'Hey, did they finally start offering coffee here?'
2. One day, a little girl walked into First Security State Bank with her piggybank in hand. As she approached the counter, the teller’s computer screen suddenly lit up with an animated dancing cow, singing ‘Happy Cow Day!’ The little girl giggled and asked if it was really Happy Cow Day. The teller smiled and said, 'Not today, sweetie.' She then counted the coins carefully, wishing that every visit to the bank could be as fun as this one. On her way out, she waved goodbye to everyone, leaving behind not just coins but also a smile.
3. One afternoon, an old lady parked her car next to First Security State Bank and went inside for some cash. When she returned to her vehicle, she found a strange object in the passenger seat—a small wooden box wrapped in brown paper. She opened it carefully, only to discover a note reading: ‘For your safe keeping—with love from the bank.’ Inside was a package of freshly baked cookies. Turns out, a friendly delivery driver had mistakenly left them there while delivering snacks to the staff.
4. One evening, a dog rushed into First Security State Bank, tail wagging furiously. The teller looked up, puzzled, as the canine approached the counter. The dog stopped abruptly and sat down, staring expectantly at the cashier. The teller smiled and reached under the counter, pulling out a small treat. The dog happily accepted it and wagged its tail one last time before trotting out of the bank. To this day, locals still joke that First Security State Bank has the friendliest canine customer service in town.
