Personal Insurance and Safety Update
The holiday season is in full swing. Over the next several weeks we will all be busy shopping, eating, and traveling. Thieves take full advantage of the holiday season because they know that that there are many expensive items in homes and cars, people are traveling and not home, and that police are overloaded. Should theft occur, home or renter’s insurance will provide coverage for theft or loss if you have the coverage.
