Ed Copple: Guiding the Way for nearly 70 years

Ed Copple led our agency from 1952 until the time of his passing in 2018. He instilled a simple yet powerful principle: treat clients like family. Ed understood that insurance isn’t only about policies; it’s about people. His legacy endures as a testament to the lasting impact of values and community.

Ed and his wife, Mary Helen Sinclair, extended their values beyond business. Their fingerprints are on the community’s civic fabric:

College Years

Ed was a four-year letterman in wrestling at UNL.

World War II

He flew B25 and B26 twin-engine bombers during the war and developed a love for flying. Ed logged over 3,000 hours as a pilot in his favorite “V Tail” Beechcraft airplanes.
