Moore also becomes the first director on the Farmers Board who lives and works in the Bank’s Stark County market.

Moore is no stranger to greater Youngstown. He attended Youngstown State University (YSU), where he was an All American athlete and co-captain on the basketball team. After YSU, Moore earned his Juris Doctorate from the University of Cincinnati and is currently the CEO and President of Krugliak, Wilkins, Griffiths & Dougherty a law firm in Canton with over 50 attorneys. Moore has served as legal counsel for several banks and has facilitated many mergers and acquisitions throughout his career.

Lance Ciroli, Farmers National Banc Corp Chairman stated, “Terry’s experience with corporate law and governance will be an asset at Farmers. Not only does Terry understand how successful businesses should operate, he also has the necessary economics background to fully grasp complicated banking financial issues. Furthermore, Terry has extensive experience in oil and gas development, which will provide the Board and the Company with an excellent understanding of this growing and dynamic industry in Eastern Ohio.”
