Spring rains dumped 12 inches of rain in 24 hours on farm lands in Lower Bois d' Arc Creek. The best wheat crop they ever had up to that time, along with their income for that year and their hopes for paying off farm loans, was swept away in the flood. Things didn't look good for the Ryser family. Fortunately, one of their landlords, who owned some of the flooded farm land, wanted to retire from managing a small local chapter of Germania Farm Mutual Insurance Company.
The landlord asked Phyllis, who had taken a leave from teaching in public schools to be at home with her two small children, if she would be interested in the assuming the small business. Although she had no knowledge of insurance, or managing a business, Phyllis did not spend much time thinking it over before accepting the offer. For the first two years the business was operated from the Ryser home.
Then in 1984 it was moved to the Honey Grove square into a two story brick building built sometime before 1884, which around the turn of the century was occupied by the Tennessee saloon.

Services
Aside from insurance I stay busy as part owner of Ryser Farms.
When I do have free time I enjoy fishing, playing guitar, shooting and hunting.
I also enjoy traveling with my wife Amber to see and experience difference places around the world.
Needing a job at the time was the only reason I got into the insurance industry but It wasn't long before I realized how rewarding it can be to see my customers able to resume their lives with no lasting consequences from suffering a major loss to their home or other property because I had sold them the proper insurance protection.
