He also has written package coverage for Medical Practices, contractors, retail stores and private individuals. Yoder Insurance enjoyed good growth and success.
In 2021 Dale knew that the growing competition in insurance and transportation was escalating. He looked for a partnership to continue taking care of his clients and grow his family of clients.
