Burns Insurance Agency

09/02/2026

Josh started out as a college baseball player at UT Tyler before spending time in education as a teacher and coach. He eventually made his way into insurance and opened his own agency in 2022.

Outside of the office, most of his time is spent with his wife and kids, golfing, hunting, or working on whatever project he’s decided to take on next.

A few other important facts:

• Married his high school sweetheart
• Dad to Ellie (6), Tucker (4), and Benson
• Marvel and Game of Thrones fan
• Has rewatched Friends at least 6 times
• Competitive by nature: business, sports, and pretty much everything else (except CrossFit apparently😆)

🚗 Friday FAQ

“Does my insurance cover a rental car?”

The answer? It depends.

Your coverage can vary based on your policy, why you’re renting the vehicle, and other factors. That’s why it’s always a good idea to know what your policy includes before you’re standing at the rental counter.

If you’re planning a trip or just want to better understand your coverage, we’re happy to help. Give us a call, send us a message, or stop by the office and we’ll walk you through it.

Have another insurance question you’ve been wondering about? Leave it in the comments. It might be featured in a future FAQ Friday!
