When considering whether to choose life insurance, most people start with the basic questions: Is it necessary? Is it worth it? Who does it benefit?
WoodmenLife member Kandus Dufrene of Gibson, LA, learned the value of life insurance through personal tragedy. When the father of her daughter passed away, she quickly understood the importance of being prepared for the unexpected.
“Being young, it took a toll on all of our lives, including financially,” she said. “It made me realize just how fast tragedies happen and how we must always be prepared. I wanted to purchase life insurance to ensure my children wouldn’t face similar struggles in the future.”
Knowing she needed life insurance was the first step. Knowing who she should buy it from was a little harder. Dufrene wanted to find someone she could trust with her family’s financial future.
Dufrene took to social media for suggestions. That led her to WoodmenLife and Financial Representative Amy Portier.
“Life insurance was something I’d never been introduced to or knew much about,” Dufrene said. “Amy was exceptional. She was so patient, kind, and extremely knowledgeable. She guided me to exactly where I needed to be and helped me make a decision on purchasing life insurance for both me and my children.”
The primary feeling Dufrene felt following the purchase was relief.
“Knowing that if something were to happen to me or my children, there would be less burden left behind,” she said. “That gives me a sense of peace.”
And it’s a feeling she wants others to have.
“I would advise people to choose life insurance, especially at a young age,” Dufrene said. “It’s so important to have, especially for your children. I have a great sense of peace knowing my children will have less to worry about financially when I pass.”
If you’d like to have the peace of mind that Dufrene found, contact your local WoodmenLife Sales Representative.
