FAIRMONT Andy Noll, President of First Farmers & Merchants National Bank in Fairmont, knows the impact of COVID-19 on functioning as a person as well as running a business. Noll’s story consists of being exposed to the coronavirus, causing him to give up something he enjoys and leading a business during the pandemic.
The effects from COVID-19 consisted of a lot of concern, some good and a lot of bad. Noll described the effects as emotionally tough on his bank staff, which made communication with customers difficult. The traffic pattern of the bank also changed when the lobbies were closed due to COVID-19 restrictions. Noll describes people’s interactions as having changed since people have used the drive-thru and electronic services.
