Insurance Agent and Trusted Friend
The sudden impact of a critical illness can devastate a happy life situation and leave you helpless. Even more painful is the toll it takes on a family's financial well-being. Often, it is only after some time for healing that you can truly come to grips with a tragic situation and can eventually move on. There is one thing, however, that makes a difference in these times of need: life insurance.

A happily married couple struggled for months to learn the reason why the husband, who had always enjoyed excellent health, was increasingly feeling tired. Eventually, cancer was the diagnosis, and he died a short time later, leaving behind his wife and their 19-year-old daughter.

And even though six months had gone by since her husband's death, the wife still thought of how fortunate she was to have had a friend like agent Kenny Beecroft from Orlando, Florida. Although he had been the family's insurance representative for some time, he was much more than just their insurance agent. Over the years he had also become a trusted friend.

As she sat there, her memory took her back to when as a young couple they had purchased a $200,000 term policy. She remembered how Kenny kept encouraging them to upgrade their policy during his visits. Today she is thankful for the constant encouragement that led them to upgrade to a $300,000 whole life policy.

Now that she and her daughter are left alone, she realizes how valuable the upgraded policy will be in enabling them to maintain their standard of living.
