Jay Parrack

Owner & Associate Agent

I grew up in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Finance from Marshall University in Huntington, WV (GO HERD!) I was first licensed to sell insurance at 18 years old and have been working in the industry since 2008. I have lots of general industry knowledge, but I specialize in business insurance. I LOVE to read policies – my clients trust me to know exactly what is and is not covered.  I love motorcycles of all types. I ride a 2016 BMW S1000R and love to take trips all over. I am a huge fan of anything nuclear – my office has a nice collection of radioactive items (all legal to own): radiation detectors, radioactive antiques, & other historical artifacts! On weekends, I love spending time with my family: movies, fire, board games, and the great outdoors.

Tammy Parrack

CSR

I was born in Detroit, moved to a small town in South Carolina at 13. When Jon and I married we moved to Point Pleasant in 1986. It has been a perfect place to raise our family.
I have been selling property and casualty insurance since 1986. While the industry has changed enormously since then, taking care of our clients will always been our greatest priority.
The thing I most love about my job is knowing when our clients are having their worst days, we are here to help. Claims are always stressful but we can guide them through it and help them get their lives back to normal. I am a Nana to 3 wonderful grandsons, one granddaughter and another granddaughter on the way. Would you like to see some pictures?
I love to read, watch HGTV, bake, cook, and travel as much as I can. But my very favorite thing is spending time with my family and friends. We try to have a grandkid or 2 over at least one day of every weekend. We have Friday night dinners with our son and his family- our daughter lives in Texas or she would join in too! So there is a LOT of FaceTime that happens.
