Every insurance office has that one person…

☎️ “Can I talk to Lorna?”
☎️ “Is Lorna available?”
☎️ “I’ll wait until Lorna gets back.”

At this point, we’re considering cloning her, but underwriting says there are too many exposures. 😆

We’re grateful for clients who trust our team and especially grateful for Lorna’s dedication, knowledge, and patience. She works hard every day to make sure our clients are taken care of.

Thank you for all you do, Lorna! ❤️

Prayers to everyone involved!

Our notification system had a major glitch and sent duplicate emails to many people this morning. I have no idea why or how, please forgive us if it woke you up at 4 am. Nobody wants emails that early in the morning, much less from insurance 😵‍💫😵‍💫

Is it another Monday? Gah!! 😖

🚗 Driving for Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, or Spark? Your Personal Auto Policy May Not Cover You.

If you or someone in your household is using a personal vehicle to deliver food, groceries, or passengers for a rideshare or gig platform — your standard personal auto policy likely has a gap you don't know about.

Most personal auto policies exclude coverage when your vehicle is being used for hire or delivery. That means if you're involved in an accident while logged into an app — even waiting for a ride request — your claim could be partially or fully denied.

Here's what you need to know:
✅ Personal auto = designed for personal use
❌ Gig driving = commercial use — and carriers treat it differently

Depending on your situation, we may be able to:
🔹 Add a rideshare endorsement to your current policy
🔹 Transition you to a commercial auto program
🔹 Help you understand what coverage the platform provides — and where it stops

The most important thing you can do right now? Call us and let us know. A quick conversation could be the difference between a covered claim and a denied one.

A quick reality check most homeowners don't realize!

Your homeowners policy is designed to cover your home and certain other structures — but standard policies have real gaps that can catch property owners off guard.

Here's where coverage often falls short:
❌ Land itself — explicitly excluded on virtually all standard policies
❌ Docks, piers & shoreline structures — may qualify as "other structures," but water-related and flood exclusions often eliminate coverage for the most common losses
❌ Private bridges & culverts — carrier underwriting guidelines frequently restrict or exclude these even when the structure itself might otherwise qualify
❌ Driveways & hardscape — settling, cracking, and maintenance-related damage are typically excluded; flood damage often is too
Why the gaps? Insurance is designed to respond to sudden and accidental damage — not ongoing water exposure, land movement, or infrastructure that carriers consider higher risk or maintenance-related.

So how do you fill those gaps?
✔️ Schedule unique structures on specialty policies
✔️ Add available endorsements where your carrier allows
✔️ Consider inland marine or specialty property coverage
✔️ For waterfront, ranch, or acreage exposures — a custom program matters

This is where a standard policy stops… and a tailored one begins.
If you own land, water access, or unique structures, it's worth a conversation.

Coverage varies by carrier, policy form, and state. This is general education — not a coverage determination for your specific policy. Always review your policy language or speak with a licensed agent.

Meet Jennifer Dafoe — Experience You Can Feel, Service You Can Count On

There's a certain confidence that comes with sitting across from someone who has truly done this work — not for a few years, but for decades. Someone who has seen the industry evolve, navigated its complexity from the inside, and still chooses to show up every day for the person sitting across the table from them.
That's Jennifer Dafoe.
Jennifer's insurance career began in the 1990s in Washington State, where she worked in underwriting with Farmers Insurance — learning the industry from the ground up, from the inside out. That foundation gave her something most agents never have: a deep, technical understanding of how policies are built, priced, and structured before she ever sat across from a single client.
When life brought her to Sheridan, Wyoming, Jennifer brought all of that knowledge with her. She went on to serve clients through Wyoming Financial, State Farm, and Prudential — each chapter adding new depth to an already seasoned career. In April 2018, she joined Iron Valley Insurance Group, and this community has been better for it ever since.

What Jennifer Does — and Does Exceptionally Well
Jennifer focuses on Personal Lines and Life & Health insurance, with a particular specialty that has made her one of the most trusted names in the region: Medicare planning.
During open enrollment season, Jennifer is booked solid — and that's no accident. Navigating Medicare is one of the most confusing, high-stakes decisions a person can face, and having someone who will sit down with you, in person, explain your options in plain language, and genuinely help you find the right fit? That is rare. And in Sheridan, that person is Jennifer.

"Jennifer Dafoe is knowledgeable to the point of awesome. Someone — in person — who will sit down and explain plans is such a blessing. Unless you have lived somewhere that you are told to 'go online,' you cannot fathom how wonderful having someone like Jennifer truly is to this community."

That testimonial says it all. In a world pushing everyone toward algorithms and chatbots, Jennifer is a real person, in a real office, who genuinely cares about getting it right for you.

With roots in underwriting, experience across multiple carriers and disciplines, and a client-first approach that has followed her throughout every chapter of her career, Jennifer Dafoe represents the very best of what independent insurance should be.

She doesn't just know the products. She knows people — what they need, what they're worried about, and what will actually serve them well for the long haul.

We are proud to have Jennifer on the Iron Valley team, and so are the clients who trust her year after year.

Interested in connecting with Jennifer — especially for Medicare planning or Personal Lines coverage? We'd love to introduce you.
