Agents' Corner Andrew Girard Westborough, MA 508-366-7802 or 866-366-0048 WPA Agent since 1998 ANDREW GIRARD has been in the insurance business since 1968. He hails from Schenectady, N.Y., and currently lives in Westborough, Mass. While attending Northeastern University in Boston, he became an agent with Metropolitan Life Insurance. After successfully completing the state insurance exam, Andy took additional insurance courses at Northeastern University and on site at Metropolitan Life in New York City. The following year, he joined the district sales organization in Brookline, Mass. During this time he won many sales contests and awards, and subsequently was promoted to assistant life insurance manager. In 1971, he left Metropolitan Life and started his own insurance business, specializing in standard and impaired risks. He also became a managing general agent for Resolute Life Insurance Co. and eventually became responsible for appointing general agents to handle life insurance products in the five New England states. In 1975, in addition to selling life and disability insurance and appointing general agents, Andy added substandard auto and homeowners insurance products to his agency. More than 20 years later, he sold the auto insurance agency and continued to sell life and disability products. In 1998, he received his Fraternal Insurance Counsellors (FIC) designation and shortly thereafter joined the William Penn Association, where he has continued to provide service and promote sales for certificate holders in Massachusetts and Connecticut. Andy has been married to his wife Janice for 40 years. Janice, a registered nurse and licensed social worker, is a program director for a child and family welfare agency in Worcester, Mass. Andy and Janice are the parents of two adult daughters and one fouryear-old granddaughter. In his spare time Andy is an avid numismatist (one who studies and/or collects currency) and enjoys fly fishing. He also volunteers his time in support of area politicians.
