The office: Welcome to the Tez Adams State Farm Insurance Agency!
Happy October!
I am sad this month, as I lost one of the most important people in my life at the end of September - My Granny!
I know we all love our grannies, but this woman was SPECIAL! I wouldn't be where I am today without her love, support, kind-heartedness and just her ability to give me grace when needed.
She was a small business owner, like me, and taught me everything I know about running a small business. I remember working for her during my summer vacations - sometimes getting up at 4am to be in the office on-time and have everything ready for the employees when they arrived.
She lived a full life and even outlived most of her children, but above all - she gave to those in need. She helped with words of advice, money, time, or whatever else was needed. She was a true inspiration for me and a lot of others, someone that will be hard for forget and could never be replaced.
Based on the above, I don't have the capacity to write anything witty this month - try back next month and I will have more. :-)

LIFE INSURANCE MYTH vs TRUTH:
Myth: "I have life insurance coverage through my employer, so I don't need an additional policy."
Truth: While employer-provided insurance can be a valuable benefit, it often provides limited coverage that may not be sufficient for your family's needs. Additionally, if you change jobs or leave the workforce, you may lose that coverage. Having a personal life insurance policy ensures that you have control over your coverage and can customize it to meet your specific requirements.
