Bill Kern

Happy fall from Bill Kern State Farm! 🍂 Fall is one of our favorite seasons, and September is Life Insurance Awareness Month. With Life Insurance, I’ve got you... and the answers to your questions.

I learned firsthand at the age of 5 what can happen when you don’t properly plan for your family’s financial future. My father passed away at the age of 38 from pancreatic cancer. Our family was not equipped to face the uncertainty that fell on us with his passing. There was nothing in place to prepare us for the grief or financial burden of losing a loved one. It was a devastating blow to our family.

Today, as an Agent with State Farm, my top priority is to deliver perspective and clarity so that you are aware and knowledgeable of the state of all your financial affairs. I strive to provide clear guidance on how to achieve the lifestyle you desire for yourself and your family. Above all, I hope to help you prepare for the uncertainty so that nothing can take you away from the life you have to live. It is for this reason that I take the time needed to get to know you and work to meet your unique goals and needs.

I began my career in financial services in 2009 following 20 years of distinguished service to my country in the Navy as a Naval Flight Officer. I completed three carrier deployments and flew over 40 combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. My time in the military fostered a keen adherence to the ideals of integrity, commitment, and dedication to excellence; ideals that are at the heart of my business philosophy today. I earned a degree in Economics from Penn State, a Master’s degree from the Naval War College, as well as a Master’s degree in Personal Finance from Kansas State University. While in the Navy, I taught at the Air Force Academy for three years as an Adjunct Professor of Management, facilitating a course in personal finance to over 150 cadets.

Born and raised in South Park, this area is my home. I am a member of McMurray Rotary and Peter's Township Chamber of Commerce. My bride of more than 31 years, Tracey, and I have three boys, Will, Tyler, and Cody, and reside in Venetia, PA. I am passionate about serving others and partnering with them through life’s journey. I encourage you to schedule time to meet with me and see firsthand how I can help you secure your family’s financial future.
