As a Farm Bureau Insurance agent in the Muskegon area, I can help you with all your insurance needs.
I provide some of the best life, home, auto, farm, and commercial insurance available here in Michigan. In fact, I can probably provide for all of your insurance needs.
Throughout its history, Farm Bureau Insurance has recognized the special needs of its clients, the people of Michigan. While each of us needs insurance protection, our needs are unique, and the best way to help is to understand those needs. We're dedicated to matching your needs with the best products. As one of our insureds, you can expect fast, fair, and honest treatment.
As long-time members of this community, my wife, Rosalie, and I appreciate all that the Muskegon area has to offer. I am active in the National Association of Securities Dealers, the Chamber of Commerce, financial services, and the Muskegon and Newaygo county business community, which has given me the opportunity to meet some friendly, caring, and intelligent people. I've been able to help some of them with their insurance needs.
I'd very much like to help you to make your financial future more predictable.
