History
The Turner Insurance Agency was started in 1962 by Robert Turner, father of Steve and Tom Turner. Steve Turner joined the business following graduation from Stetson University in 1973. Tom Turner joined the firm in 1975. Several other local insurance agencies were purchased and incorporated into the Turner Agency through the years, including the Little Insurance Agency in 1975, the Ranson Agency in 1979 and the Spink Agency in 1985. After nearly 40 years at the corner of Prairie and Lafayette, the business was moved to a new building at 1715 West Morton in January, 2000.
Our Mission
The Turner Insurance Agency operates a little differently than most. Rather than selling every type of insurance under the sun, we have two divisions: the Personal Insurance Division headed by Tom Turner, specializing in auto, home, farm and term life insurance; and the Commercial Insurance Division run by Steve Turner, handling virtually any type of property or liability coverage needed by a business or organization. We do not offer health insurance.
