each family.
Dan Claus -
Insurance
Allows Dad
to be a Dad
Peggy Claus ran
her own computer
consulting
business and was
responsible for
managing most of
the day-to-day
affairs of her
household. When
Peggy died at
age 48 of breast
cancer, she left
behind four sons
and a husband
who commuted 140
miles a day to
get to his job.
Peggy’s life
insurance helped
pay off debts
and half of the
mortgage on the
family home. It
also allowed Dan
to accept a
lower-paying job
closer to home
so he can tend
to the daily
needs of his
sons.

Jill McCarthy - Keeping a Roof Over Their Heads |
|
One week after Bob and Jill McCarthy filled out applications to increase their life insurance coverage, Bob was killed in a trucking accident. Jill, mother of four, didn't know how she would handle the bills, when her agent called to tell her Bob's claim would be paid even though the new policy had not yet been issued. The insurance benefit allowed Jill to stay at home to care for her children, and to purchase the home she and Bob had always dreamed of owning.

Melissa Wandall - Keeping His Spirit Alive |
|
Being a financial services professional, Mark Wandall understood the importance of insurance and the need to protect himself and his wife, Melissa. Sadly, at age 30, Mark was killed in an auto accident by someone who ran a red light. The life insurance has allowed Melissa to remain in their home and be a full-time mom to their daughter, who was born two weeks after the accident. Melissa has kept Mark’s spirit alive by creating two important causes, The Mark Wandall Foundation that raises money for worthy causes in her community and the Mark Wandall Traffic Safety Act that, if enacted, would stiffen criminal penalties for red-light running in Florida. |
