A Twinkie Can Save A Life

A TDECU Member sent us this heartwarming letter: “I came to the bank to do my usual business on Thursday morning. Rocio was a wonderful person. It was my birthday and she gave me a Hostess Twinkie as a small gift. I am an insulin-dependent diabetic, and I was doing some charity work when my phone started telling me that my sugars were dropping into the 50s. I immediately ate that Hostess Twinkie. If it wasn’t for that, I probably would have ended up in the hospital. I’d like to thank her, and I would like greatly like to see TDECU give her some special recognition. It made a difference for me.”

Rocio’s thoughtful gesture is a perfect example of how TDECU puts our members first. Thank you, Rocio, for living our values.
