Howdy! I’m glad you chose to visit us! August, often seen as the final chapter of summer, is a month of transition and preparation. As families squeeze in last-minute vacations and start getting ready for the school year, it’s also a wise period to reassess home and auto insurance policies. The summer months can bring about severe weather conditions such as thunderstorms and hurricanes, making it crucial to ensure that home insurance policies are up-to-date and capable of covering any potential damages. Additionally, with many people hitting the road for summer trips, reviewing auto insurance policies becomes equally important. Confirming that you have adequate coverage, including liability, collision, and comprehensive options, can prevent financial strain in case of accidents or unforeseen events. Taking the time in August to evaluate and update these insurance policies can provide security as the season changes and new routines begin. Here at Gary Wideman State Farm, we take great pride in being able to help our customers with their insurance and financial services needs. We offer everything from auto insurance, homeowners insurance, renters insurance, life insurance, and health insurance, business insurance and can also help out with certain financial service products. No matter if you are a long time homeowner or just purchasing your very first automobile, my office is here to help guide you in the direction that's right for you. What if you're more of a do it yourself, online person? With Gary Wideman State Farm Insurance, you have a variety of ways to access your insurance policies. So, whether you like to handle matters in person, via phone, text, and email we can adjust to your personal needs.

After a career as a pilot for Delta Air Lines, I moved my family to Burnet in 2007 to begin my profession with State Farm. After 17 years as Burnet’s local State Farm Agent, I know it was right move at the right time for the right reasons! I’ve been blessed to serve on several boards ranging from the Chamber of Commerce to being Burnet’s Mayor for, currently, 7 years. We’ve even been voted “Most Liked Insurance Company” 17 times! That award reminds me every day of my personal goal to make my community and my customers my top priority.

I’ve been happily married to my sweet bride Suzanne, who works for Ascension Seton Highland Lakes, for 30 years and we have two beautiful daughters, Abigail, a Cum Laude (yes, I’m bragging) Texas A & M graduate who lives in Santa Monica, CA with her husband Noah, and Caroline, who is a Senior at Texas A & M and married to Jacob, a Naval Aviator in Pensacola, FL. Life is full! WHOOP!

I, my team members, Chisholm and Ember, look forward to meeting you and serving your insurance and financial service needs!
