Kellogg Insurance founder, Ron Kellogg, joined the insurance industry in 1968 and spent his career serving the senior market.

"Ron Kellogg was a true industry icon who lived the same core values Integrity was founded on — Integrity, Family, Service, Respect and Partnership — values that are exemplified now through Kevin's leadership. When we combine their heritage with Integrity's passion for serving agents and improving the overall insurance experience, we see an incredibly exciting future together. We are honored to have Kevin and his team beside us as we impact the industry going forward."

"We honor Ron's legacy by choosing Integrity's best-in-class technology and extensive resources to move us into the future. The list of industry legends that Integrity has assembled is incredible and we didn't want to miss our chance to become part of it. By working together with Integrity, we'll better serve our clients, agents and partners and do things together that we never thought possible."
