About Us
We had no idea with we married that we would be in the insurance business. Clarence graduated from EIU with a degree in business, hoping to find a job in the banking industry. Finding no job in a bank, he went back to work at his old job with the Pesotum Grain Elevator dumping grain trucks. While working there he went to work with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in Champaign and then on to Prudential Insurance Company, working the life insurance business. Doyle Johnson called and gave us the opportunity to buy part of his agency in 1977 and move back to Charleston so we jumped at the chance. In 1985 Doyle retired and we acquired the rest of his business, bringing Brad Johnson in with us. We started the agency in a small basement room under Dr. Ramsey’s office and worked up to where we are now on Lincoln Avenue. Penny Dowling joined us in 1993 and Julie Finney came on board in 2009. Clarence, Brad, Linda and Penny are licensed agents with 129 years experience between us. We write auto, m/c, RV, home, renters, rental, farm, commercial, life, health, disability, medicare supplement and long term care insurance. We appreciate all our customers and are honored that you entrust us with your insurance needs.
