In this world it is rare to find people that provide good service, for years on end, on a personal basis, always treating you like a valued customer. I guess that makes me lucky because I have two. I have done business with the same CPA for about 40 years, and the same insurance agent for over 20 years.

Bradenton Insurance is the company, but it is Gloria that makes my experience so good. I couldn't tell you who owns the agency, or any thing about anyone there, except Gloria. This lady has taken care of my insurance needs with her own blend of knowledge, and personality. She always asks about my son and wife (always by name), and she has taken the time to listen when I tell her. We have both talked through each others divorces when I've called to change coverage on our cars, or when we have moved, or whatever life event requires me to call.

It is such a refreshing feeling to call and not get some machine that wants me to press one for English, and then ask me to punch in a social security number. When I call Bradenton Insurance I get a human, and I ask for Gloria, and all conversations include please and thank you. This alone warrants high marks, so I must assume that the owner understands what people want.

Gee whiz, no one stays at the same place over 20 years anymore, do they? Except Gloria (so someone is treating her well) and my CPA, and ,oh yes, me. Same place for 25 years.

Thanks Gloria, and thank you Bradenton Insurance.

PS: A quick tidbit; We live in South Sarasota county and never go to Bradenton. Would you believe that as happy as I've been with Gloria over all these years, we have never met face to face.
