About Us

The Johnson Insurance Agency was started  by Vernelle Johnson in May of 1946 after returning from WWII where he completed 35 combat missions over Europe in the B-17 Flying Fortress. His first office on the main street here in Cadillac was located on the 2nd floor of the Torbeson Buidling  followed by a corner office on the first floor of what is now the Cadillac 4 and then on to our current location at 223 N. Mitchell Street. Vernelle's choice of insurance as a career was influenced by the experience of losing his home to a fire when he was a child. The family business has now been in operation for over 70 years.
