Mr. Huber practiced for over 35 years as a certified public accountant with the Lancaster, Pennsylvania-based public accounting firm Trout, Ebersole & Groff, LLP, for which he served as managing partner from 1998 to 2010. He retired from that firm in 2012. He served as a director of Union National Financial Corporation and Union National Community Bank from 2006 until 2011. Since Donegal Financial Services Corporation acquired Union National Financial Corporation in 2011, Mr. Huber has served as a director and chairman of the audit committee of the board of directors of Union Community Bank.
