They are fixtures in our community and integral parts of distinct family legacies, one rooted in funeral services, the other in banking and finance. On April 14, Bill Cutler and Sid Dinsdale will be among those inducted into the prestigious Omaha Business Hall of Fame, recognition of the lasting significance of their professional accomplishments.

2015 Omaha Business Hall of Fame Honoree
John “Sid” Dinsdale
Chairman, Pinnacle Bancorp Inc.
Sid Dinsdale learned early on that he didn’t want to make farming his full-time career. Instead, he steered toward the other family business – banking and what is now Pinnacle Bancorp Inc. Like his father, Dinsdale has overseen tremendous growth – all done with integrity and a focus on community impact.
