Bob Weaver retiring; Jeff Tippens to take over Cotton States Insurance
It's a great day, a day people look forward to their whole lives - retiring. That's just what Bob Weaver, district manager and agent for Cotton States Insurance here in Live Oak, is doing after 35 years of service to the company. Bob has been serving this community for the past 20 years. He and his wife Linda will be moving to their home in Greensboro, Ga. to be closer to their grandkids.
"Greensboro is a small town just like Live Oak with a lot of history too," Bob said. "Just like this house. When we moved into this building I had no idea the man who is said to have built this house in 1906 was named Cotton Allen. The other thing most people don't know is that my middle name is Allen and one of my sons is named Allen. So I believe we were meant to be here. I've enjoyed living in this community, met a lot of good people and made a lot of great friends. I will miss everyone."
Bob also said he wants to thank everyone for their patronage over the years.
"I know that this community will continue to receive good service because Jeff Tippens is dependable, conscientious and the perfect choice to take over this agency. He understands the people," Bob said. "He has worked with me for the past year and already knows most of our clients. He is forming great relationships here in Live Oak."
Jeff Tippens has been with Cotton States for 20 years. He and his wife Virginia (originally from White Springs) are delighted to be back in the area. Jeff loves the people and the history of Live Oak and is looking forward to serving you for all your insurance needs.
