This agency was opened by Ken Murray in 1939. They specialized in many areas such as, commercial lines, personal lines, life and health, and more. The second agency is Baker and Associates, Inc. which was put into place by Larry Baker’s parents, Paul and Olga Baker in 1964. This agency specialized in property and casualty.
