Our work in the insurance industry began over 100 years ago with our great-grandfather, Bernie, then grandfather Bob, followed by our father Dave Sr. The fourth generation was compelled to keep the tradition alive and purchased our father’s small business in 2007 to rest as the cornerstone on what is known today as Stumm Insurance.
