"We began cleanup immediately and are working expeditiously, but it will most likely be three to four weeks before we can return to normal operations," said Mark Jones, Chairman, President and CEO of First Financial, Southlake. "Our Southlake drive-thru will remain open for all deposit transactions and other limited services will be available in the lobby. We are asking customers to use our Keller and Trophy Club facilities, which are conveniently located. Fortunately, no one was injured and all documents, data and files are secure and intact so we will be able to continue providing our customers with the first-class, personal service they deserve."
First Financial Bank - Keller is located at 891 Keller Parkway and First Financial Bank - Trophy Club is located at 95 Trophy Club Drive. Some of the Southlake staff is being relocated to these two locations temporarily and all staff can be reached by calling 817-410-2915.
"Mark Jones and his team did an exceptional job of executing their disaster recovery plan," said Scott Dueser, President and CEO of First Financial Bankshares. "I was most impressed to see how our officers and employees worked diligently through flooded conditions to save customer information, computer equipment and furniture so that we could be back serving our customers this morning. With great appreciation, I congratulate this team for a job well done."
