Cokia McGrone was extremely helpful and she answered all of our questions when we opened a new account with CSE. She is an asset to CSE, extremely friendly and very welcoming. Thank you Cokia! If you are looking for a credit union and need someone knowledgeable, go see Cokia, you won’t be disappointed.
