Sunflower Credit Union was formed January 14, 1952 by seven Union Pacific Railroad employees. The par value of a share was $5.00 just as it is today. Membership was open to employees of the Fourth Subdivision of Union Pacific Railroad and their families. The “Field of Membership” was expanded in March of 1973 to include UPRR employees working on the St. Joseph and Manhattan branches. In February of 1993, employees of Tension Envelope Corporation working in Marysville were added to the “FOM”. JoAnn was also instrumental in adding services offered by the credit union including timed certificates (CD’s) and share draft (checking) accounts.
