The “River Valley Woman” magazine, which is distributed in the New Ulm and Mankato area, hit the newsstand in June, with a very familiar face. Lismore native Todd Loosbrock, son of Gary & Vickie, was featured on the front cover and readers also were treated to an inside scoop on Todd’s “Winning Ways”. Todd has made a name for himself in the Mankato-area banking world, following in the Loosbrock family tradition. He has moved through the ranks of commercial banking and currently serves as the Regional president of twelve U.S. banks across southern Minnesota and southwestern Wisconsin. Todd believes in technology, but he believes more in the personal factor and connecting with people. He is a busy family man, enjoying time with wife Amy and sons, Bennett and Brennen, while still finding time to be involved in many community organizations. Todd finds a way to balance it all…family, work, and community…and he does it well. Congratulations, Todd…you make Lismore proud!
