Prior to joining The First National Bank of Eldorado, Sauer served as vice president at City National Bank in Colorado City for the past 16 years, specializing in farm and ranch lending. He earned his BS degree in ag/economics from Texas A&M University.

Aaron Thomas was hired as assistant vice president on July 8. He came to The First National Bank of Eldorado from City Bank in Lubbock, where he worked for 16 years, most recently in the loan review department.
