Research has found many Americans underestimate the importance of life insurance—until a loved one passes away.

Consequences of being financially unprepared for such a tragedy can include survivors having to work additional hours or take additional jobs; borrow money from friends, family or lending institutions; withdraw funds from savings and investments; or move to a smaller home.

Farm Bureau members can help ensure a secure financial future for their families with several products available through Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Co. They include permanent and term life insurance, long-term care and disability insurance, and retirement planning, estate planning and business continuation assistance.
