How Life Insurance Saved Dothan Families
The Johnson Family - Enterprise
"When my husband died in a car accident at age 34, I had three young children and a mortgage. His $500,000 life insurance policy paid off our home, covered funeral expenses, and gave me time to grieve without worrying about money. My children stayed in their schools, and I was able to be there for them during the hardest time of our lives."
- Sarah J., Enterprise (Military Spouse)
The Williams Family - Dothan
"My wife was diagnosed with cancer and passed away within six months. The medical bills were overwhelming, but her $300,000 life insurance policy covered everything and left enough for our daughter's college fund. I don't know how we would have survived financially without it."
- Michael W., Dothan (Small Business Owner)
The Davis Family - Ozark
"When my husband died suddenly of a heart attack, I was left with two teenagers and a farm to run. His $750,000 policy allowed me to pay off the farm debt, send both kids to Auburn University, and maintain our family's agricultural legacy. The kids graduated debt-free."
- Linda D., Ozark (Farm Family)
