Farmers National Bank announced today the following changes in its Accounting and Finance Group. The change is prompted by Joseph Sabat’s decision to retire as Chief Accounting Officer, effective May 2^nd, 2025.

Sabat, who was promoted to Chief Accounting Officer in 2021, has been with Farmers since 2006. He previously served as the Bank’s Controller. The decision ends Sabat’s highly successful 25+ year career in accounting, finance and auditing.

“On behalf of Farmers and the Company’s Board of Directors, we thank Joe for his years of loyal service. Joe has been a valued leader in our organization and contributed to our financial soundness throughout the years,” states Kevin Helmick, President and CEO of Farmers.

Farmers has named Sherry Commons as the Chief Accounting Officer effective upon Sabat’s retirement. Commons began serving as Controller of the Company in March 2025. She has over 23 years of banking experience. A Mahoning Valley resident, Commons holds an accounting degree from Youngstown State University.

Commons will report to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Troy Adair. Of her appointment, Adair stated, “We welcome Sherry to Farmers and to this key role. Her expertise and experience will be essential in continued support of the Company’s financial excellence.”
