Celebrating Maynard’s Birthday

Here at Farmers & Merchants Bank, July 9 is a special day—it’s the birthday of Maynard Dunlap, grandfather to our president, Gerry Dunlap, and the inspiration behind our book, Maynard’s Great Big Nebraska Adventure.
As the heart of FMB, Maynard and his furry namesake remind us that saving, sharing, and showing kindness is a piece of cake.
In honor of his big day, we’re celebrating the timeless lessons he brought to life and encourage you to do the same by:
Saving a Little Bit Regularly
Even small savings can lead to big adventures.
Giving Back with Joy
Generosity makes our communities stronger.
Planning Wisely
Thoughtful choices today help make a sweeter tomorrow.
Whether you’re just starting your savings journey or already leading the way, Maynard’s birthday is the perfect time to reflect on having values that make a difference—not just in your wallet, but in the world around you.
So, here’s to Maynard: clever, kind, and always ready to lend a helping hand. His legacy is truly a gift.
