Cypress in the Community
MEDIA, EVENTS, & NEWS
Cypress team members from across Florida came together to attend the Estate Planning Council of Northeast Florida, where they heard from former FBI Special Agent Toni Chrabot on the critical topic of protecting clients` and families` personal information.
The discussion explored risk management, digital security strategies, and the importance of proactive planning in an increasingly complex environment.
Representing Cypress Bank & Trust were John Moore, June Lundy, Christina Morelli, Tony Azqueta, and Raphael Lima. While they serve clients in different markets across the state, opportunities like this bring our team together to learn, share perspectives, and strengthen the knowledge we bring to the families and businesses we serve.

Thank you to 28 North Gastropub for helping create an exceptional experience for our guests, and to Groundswell Startups for the incredible custom skateboard featuring our 30-Year Anniversary logo.

A legacy isn`t just what you leave behind. It`s the security you provide today.
September is Life Insurance Awareness Month, a reminder that protecting the people who matter most is an important part of any financial plan.
While many people spend time preparing for retirement, building wealth, or creating an estate plan, life insurance is often overlooked. The right coverage can help provide financial security and peace of mind for those you love.
A conversation today can make a meaningful difference tomorrow.
