Dan Watkins |
 Our Crop Insurance agency has been around a long time. Its founder Dan Watkins started the agency back in 1970 selling private hail insurance and some crop insurance for the government. Dan graduated from Fort Hays State University in 1971 with a BS in Business Finance. He has been actively involved in the farming industry his entire life. Dan has worked over 54 years as an agent with his wife Judy Watkins. Still to this day Dan comes into the office several times a week and is a big asset to our agency. He is actively involved in his local Church and enjoys going to the lake and spending time with his children and grandchildren. |

Her main duties involve underwriting policies and her specialty is crop hail insurance. Judy has been a dedicated agent for nearly 54 years now. She graduated from Fort Hays State University in 1971 with a BA in Elementary Education.
