Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union Announces Retirement of Executive Assistant

Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union Executive Assistant Selma Reburn has announced her retirement. Reburn has been employed by Carolina Trust since February 1987. During her time at Carolina Trust, she has held several positions: Teller, Member Service Representative, Member Service Representative Supervisor, Membership Development Assistant, Assistant Branch Manager, Administrative Assistant, and most recently, Executive Assistant.

During Reburn’s 33 years with the Credit Union, she’s seen it undergo many changes. When she first began in 1987, Carolina Trust was known as the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base Federal Credit Union. The Myrtle Beach Air Force Base Federal Credit Union served both military and civilian employees on the base. After the closure of the Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, the credit union requested NCUA’s approval to change the name of the credit union to Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union. Overtime, Carolina Trust expanded from just two branches (Air Force Base and Conway) to the seven branches that are currently operating.

In 1993, Reburn took on her current role as Executive Assistant. As Executive Assistant, Reburn performs a variety of duties, along with supporting the Board of Directors and the credit union Staff. She has served as Executive Assistant under five different Carolina Trust Presidents: William Varn, Malcolm (Ed) Culpepper, Jim McDaniel, Jerry Miller, and Tim Carlisle.

“I sincerely thank Selma for all of her contributions to Carolina Trust during her 33 years of service and all she has done for me during my time as President/CEO,” said Tim Carlisle, Carolina Trust President/CEO. “We will miss Selma dearly but will remember her many accomplishments with deep appreciation.”

Reburn also served under several Board Chairmen, notably Major General Jones E. Bolt, Colonel Charles M. Thrash, and presently Lieutenant Colonel B. Michael Marlowe, Carolina Trust Board Chairman and FAA Pilot Examiner.

“Selma Reburn is the most loyal, dedicated, and versatile employee that’s ever worked for Carolina Trust Federal Credit Union. Her unwavering loyalty, smile, and helpful hand will be sorely missed, but not forgotten,” said Lieutenant Colonel B. Michael Marlowe, Carolina Trust Board Chairman and FAA Pilot Examiner.
