In 2019, Coastal Heritage Bank completed a second merger with Equitable Bank of Weymouth. Mr. Gill will be succeeded by Robert W. Terravecchia, Jr., Vice Chairman & Chief Operating Officer of Coastal Heritage Bank and former President/CEO of Equitable Bank.
In a banking career that spanned nearly 45 years, Mr. Gill held prior leadership positions with First National Bank of Ipswich, National Bank of Greece and Salem Five Cents Savings.
Mr. Gill also served as Chairman of the Massachusetts Banking Association from 2019–2020.

His banking sense, innate leadership qualities and consistent advocacy for his staff and customers alike have made Coastal Heritage Bank a successful part of the North and South Shore communities.”
