Charles Hightower, the first select employee group hourly worker to serve on the board of directors of the $437 million PrimeWay Federal Credit Union in Houston has passed away.
Hightower, 77, died from a heart attack in his home on March 22, two days after the credit union's annual meeting.
Hightower broke new ground by becoming the first-ever hourly employee of the former Cameron Iron Works, a credit union SEG, elected to the board. He served for 40 years and was instrumental in building relations with communities and members acquired by PrimeWay through its various mergers and acquisitions.
