Antonio Valtierra Farmers Insurance Agent

We’re celebrating Women’s History Month by honoring our very first female employee, Ethel B. In her 30-year tenure, she did everything from writing policies to managing the first office and more. I am proud to carry on her spirit of dedication. You go Ethel!

At Farmers, we’ve seen lots of unbelievable things. Like the time a grouchy goat could not discern its own reflection, but caused very discernible vehicular damage. We covered it on 11/9/11.

Surprise fact: 25 percent of boat fires originate from somewhere else (often the marina, the storage dock, or even a neighbor’s boat). As you enjoy your boat over the weekend, give me a call. Let’s discuss some options for your boat so you can select coverage for whatever blows your way.

100 percent of people prefer a well-cooked steak to a well-cooked home. That is my own research. Let’s connect and review your homeowners policy, so you can be sure you’re covered even when the unexpected happens.

I know I love my pet! Share a photo of your four-legged friends! (And don't forget to make sure their policy is up to date ;)

Golf clubs began as wood weighed down with some lead, and now come in all sorts of combinations of aluminum, titanium and steel. If you want to chat about how you can protect those precious clubs, or just want to shoot a friendly game, give me call.

What are your weekend plans? I've mapped out a hike around the Marin Headlands to the Point Bonita Lighthouse and the dog-friendly Rodeo Beach.

I'm thankful for each and every one of my customers! I want to help you protect what's important to you and your family. Schedule a Farmers Friendly Review today, so I can personally review your policies and make sure you're protected in all the right places. Thank you for your business!

Between the picking up toys and cutting off sandwich crusts, I know how hard it is to find the time to figure out your life insurance. But knowing that you’ve helped protect your family’s financial future is worth all the perfect crustless PB&Js in the world. Take a break from the craziness and give me a call about your options. I promise it’ll be worth your while.

True Life Story ... The following is an e-mail I received. This real life story was so moving that I thought I would share it with you. Every day I try to provide a life insurance policy to people who need it. I know they need it; they know they need it, but for whatever reasons the policy does not get written.Please read! Dear Agent, I am writing you today to apologize for procrastinating. I now know I should have called you months ago. I wish I had kept our original appointment in January. On May 12th , 2007 my husband was in a horrific auto accident! We were traveling southbound on highway 99 in Chowchilla when a Chevy Silverado extended cab truck flew over the oleanders at us head on.The Chevrolet pickup was at least 10-15 feet in the air flying right at us! We were hit head on!! My precious husband was KILLED instantly!!!! I had my feet on the dashboardI actually missed being killed by inches. Having my feet on the dashboard, saved me, however I have extensive injuriesmy feet were CUT OFF, my ankles were crushed and left at the scene and my legs were badly burned by the air bag! I have Cadaver bones in my ankles trying to grow new bones. I have not walked since May 12th of 2007. I am so sad with grief; it is difficult to get through the day. What really makes me sick, is my husband and I had very little life insurance! If we had kept out appointment in January, I wouldn’t be worried about money. You know people wake up every morning expecting that everything is going to be ok. What they don’t realize is life is fragile and you don’t know when that truck is going to jump the middle divider. I thought I had time to procrastinate. I was dead wrong!! I wish I could turn back time! I wish I had kept my appointment with you. Please share with as many people as you can so they don’t end up like us. Sincerely Yours Please don’t let this happen to your family Get a LIFEPolicy TODAY! Call us for more details.
