As we celebrate
70 years as a
credit union, we
also celebrate
our unrivaled
membership growth
over the past few
years. Redstone has
exceeded 640,000
members with our adding 102,000 members
during 2020 alone.
ose numbers are impressive; however,
what excites me more is when I hear our
members say they feel as if they are part of
our family – and not just a number.
One of our early members, St. John
Courtenay, Jr., is featured on page 12 of this
magazine. Mr. Courtenay talks about joining
Redstone after going to work for NASA, and
60-plus years later, he is still a member.
I met Mr. Courtenay in Murfreesboro a
few years ago when we opened our third
branch there. I soon realized that we had
a connection through his daughter, Anne
Courtenay Davis.
I knew Anne's father-in-law, Joe Davis, a
former 20-year mayor of Huntsville.
I was good friends with one of Mr. Davis'
sons, and we would ride back and forth to
college together. We had not seen each other
in 40 years. is college friend is Anne's
brother-in-law.
I could not believe this! What a small world!
ere is a dynamic at work that links us to
others around the world. What an honor and
privilege it is to be a part of it all.
We are excited to celebrate Redstone's 70th
birthday with wonderful members such as
Mr. Courtenay.
We want every member to feel a connection
with THEIR credit union because we exist
for THEM. In a cooperative like ours, every
member matters!
