of Insurance Agents on September 1, 1999. The Missouri Association of 
Insurance Agents is the oldest and largest association of insurance 
agents in the state of Missouri. With that long standing tradition, 
approximately 500 independent agencies that are operated by 4,000 
agents, brokers, and their employees are members of the association. In 
2002, Mr. Case was awarded the Insurance Person of the Year Award for 
the significant contributions that he has made to the insurance 
industry.
  Mr. Case is passionate about the legislative and regulatory advocacy 
side of the insurance field and has played an integral part in passing 
legislation that has helped advance the causes of independent insurance 
agents in Missouri. He has served in various roles at the national 
level with the Independent Insurance Agents and Brokers of America and 
the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents, not to 
mention the numerous committees and task forces he has volunteered to 
serve on during his illustrious career. Additionally, Mr. Case has 
routinely shared his expertise at the Mid-America Insurance Conference 
and has earned the respect of many lawmakers, company personnel, and 
independent insurance agents throughout the great state of Missouri.
  I ask you to join me in recognizing Mr. Larry Case on his retirement. 
The commitment he has shown to the Missouri Association of Insurance 
Agents and to his community for 30 years is a commendable 
accomplishment.
