"CNB took the bull by the horns on this one! They (Lindsay Mohr) reached out to me about this. Her constant communication through the whole process was impeccable. When updates were issued we were notified promptly. Their breakdown of the ins and outs of the program into verbiage that was easy to understand was a big help also. Within one week we went from application to loan documents complete. Lindsay and her complete team of support were a great help to us. These are the people I am thankful to have on my team!"

"Dan and I wish to extend to you and all your associates at CNB our deepest thanks for your prompt and professional handling our PPP loan application. I'm sure you can understand that we were apprehensive about the ability of your team to process our request in any sort of expedited manner, so imagine our elation when we received your response only days after our submission. To say we were relieved is most certainly an understatement! This challenging situation has created turbulent waters for all of us, and your calm demeanor and guidance most certainly helped us to manage the various tasks presented to us in such a short time. We are so appreciative of your efforts, we hope that you will share them with all of your team."

"I would like to give appreciation to all the people at CNB and the incredible service provided for myself and my business during this uncertain time. As a customer, i would recommend them to anyone and everyone. They made applying for the PPP loan easy and explained every part of the experience with detail. I was at ease in an instance knowing that the girls at CNB were handling my applications and were much more informed than any other financial institution. Lindsay Mohr and Alyssa Serinis were EXCEPTIONAL!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!!"

Justin Copie - Innovative Solutions

"CNB has been our banking partner since 2015. I think the most telling sign of their commitment, has been their level of consistency to service us as a customer, and always being creative when needed. They're quite simply, not your average bank. The COVID-19 situation created another major opportunity for CNB to step up and help us understand our options, as we evaluated everything that was happening in the world around us, and within our business. There was no hesitation to be forthcoming, share expectations, inform us quickly, and take the time to advise us on the impact to our business. We couldn't be more pleased with the way our relationship has grown, as CNB has provided us with guidance and helped when we've needed it most. I'd recommend CNB to any small business that is looking for a partner to grow their business. Alone we can do so little; together, with a partner like CNB, we can do so much more."

Many of our employees don't know you, but I know they are all grateful that we didn't have to have furloughs or pay cuts. I have been singing the praises of working with CNB, a local bank.

Shawn Marie Clary, The Ledger Keeper

"As a local bookkeeper I saw firsthand the stress and anxiety that the closing of small businesses in the Rochester area had on my clients. I was so thankful when I connected with Lindsay at Canandaigua National Bank. She was there for me every step of the way as I guided my clients through an ever changing and tumultuous process of applying for the Paycheck Protection Program. Although she was dealing with stress and long hours of her own, she was always pleasant and informative, delivering the most updated information available. With her assistance and CNB by my side, we were able to get several small businesses approved for the PPP, easing the financial anxiety for so many during this time of uncertainty."

Peggy Growney, Windsor Cottage

"Working with Iva on our PPP application underlined yet again how incredible CNB is – your great people, your commitment to this business community and the community at large. When I saw the post from Frank Hamlin on social media, I was blown away once again. First things first. Exactly right. Let’s take care of people first. Once again, I was so proud to be associated with CNB. Iva, as always, made the application process easy. Her calm focus and lightening quick response when I had questions - at such a critical time – helped immeasurably in the process. I always know I am able to count on her, and for that I am so grateful. It wasn’t surprising that CNB took the lead in our community in executing the PPP loans – it was just another reason being a cheerleader for CNB is easy. You’re the best. "

I highly commend both Samantha Johnson and Jaimie Wood for their dedication, drive and diligence to get Mindware Connections successfully through this daunting, unprecedented process."
