Family in need

Services for Real Estate Pros with Jayson Hoffer Insurance Agency Inc.

One of my clients called me this morning crying. She said Monday was a very bad day for her. She said her husband committed suicide on Monday. They have 7 children. He was a good man; he made a great living up until two years ago. With the market crashing, he lost his job and ability to provide for his family to the same extent. With seven kids they burned through their savings, 401k, Ira, and assets. They didn't spend money foolishly even when they had it. They have older vehicles, a modest home, and reasonable expenses. She called me asking if he had life insurance with me. They did not purchase any on him, because he had it through work at that point. I could not get him to see the light. We wrote a small policy on her, just to get the auto/home/life discount.

Please PLEASE look out for your family. Get a Will, fill in your trust! Finalize it! I can continually say it, "Your life insurance at work, is not really yours" When you leave, or terminate employment the policy goes away. Now here she is losing her Peoria home, she said her mortgage company was set to auction the home off on the following Monday. Her father's attorney called the bank to get a 30 day extension. They approved it. She now has 30 days to find a new home with a foreclosure on her credit without a job. She has been in school and graduates in May. She is not a 20 year old kid that is a victim of being young and having to many kids. She is an adult that has been responsibly raising her great kids.

Using all my resources and networking abilities, I have called Barringtons Events (http://barringtonsevents.com) 602-266-1831 my flower guy to ask for a favor. Rick the owner said he can donate some flowers and help her out. I told him I could chip in with my state mandated limit. This was a start. I also called a mover knowing she will need help. I have been pulling favors all day.

At the http://sevalleywcr.com/ event today I asked a bunch of friends for help and resources.

In times like this who can help. What sources can you think of? I spoke with several Realtors and Lenders today. I need more ideas to help my client and friend!

What a horrible and tragic opening. Makes you think. Good advice.

Sad to hear this. I have been an advocate of people at least getting a will. It is a touchy subject for many but it needs to be said to folks of all ages, I have had the same discussion wit my daughters.

This is so sad!  It makes me angry at him as he took the easy way out and left his wife to deal with the consequences.

That is just terrible. I have said a prayer for their grieving family.

Jayson ~ This is the 2nd story I've heard like this in a week.  Tragic indeed.
