ABOUT ME
Hi there, my name is Steve Crisp! I am a Western Kentucky native – born and raised in Hopkinsville – with ties to Kentucky and Tennessee that go back several generations. My father, Joe Crisp, sold insurance in Christian County for over 30 years, and I have been in the insurance industry for 35 years, with many more still ahead of me.
I married my beautiful wife, Kerri, in 1987 – the same year I began selling insurance. Kerri and I have been blessed with two wonderful children, Stephen and Karson. Giving back to the community and helping others have always been important core values to my wife and I, and we have tried to instill these same values in our children. My son, Stephen, is not only a third-generation insurance professional, he also helps manage my Hopkinsville and Greenville State Farm offices. My daughter, Karson, chose to follow in her mother’s footsteps, as an elementary school teacher in Hopkinsville. My daughter-in-law, Jessie, teaches elementary school in Clarksville, TN. So far, our children have blessed Kerri and I with three grandchildren, or as I like to call them – three future insurance agents and school teachers! During my leisure time, I enjoy playing with my three grandchildren and five rescue dogs.
Approximately nine years ago, I started my career with State Farm at the Lafayette Road office in Hopkinsville. On August 1st, 2022, I took over the Greenville office of retiring State Farm agent Denny Slinker and immediately filled it with local Greenville and Muhlenberg County team members. I feel that having offices in both Hopkinsville and Greenville that primarily employs team members from those areas allows my team to better serve all of our customers, wherever they may reside.
Keeping local jobs filled with good local people will always be one of my primary goals. I hand select each of my team members from the local pool of prospective employees based on their character and values, as well as their insurance knowledge and customer service skills. Every member of my team goes above and beyond to treat each customer like part of our extended family. Whether you stop by either of my offices to get a free insurance quote, make a payment, or to file a claim, you will be greeted with a friendly hello and a smile from a local face.
At Steve Crisp State Farm, we offer Auto, Homeowners, Condo, Renters, Business, Personal Articles, Life, and Health Insurance. The availability of Banking and Financial Services broadens our ability to help our customers beyond insurance.
As a past president of the Christian County Agri-Business Association and avid supporter and advocate of Max’s Hope Animal Rescue, I have always loved animals. Being an important part of all of our lives, I feel our pets should have healthcare, just like any other member of our family. As an animal lover, I am proud to now offer Pet Insurance through an alliance with Trupanion.
While we consider ourselves the hometown team, we also excel in welcoming newcomers to our area. So, if you are in the military and transferring here, or moving to the area to start a new career at one of the local factories, distilleries, or other local industries, stop by and see us for a free insurance quote or policy review.
I am licensed in Kentucky and Tennessee, so regardless of where you live in this area we can take care of your insurance needs. My team and I service Fort Campbell /Oak Grove, Kentucky, Clarksville, Tennessee, Hopkinsville/Christian County, Kentucky, Greenville/Muhlenberg County and all of the surrounding areas. I hold the professional designations of FLMI and LUTCF. I am also a supporter and advocate of the Salvation Army and a proud member of the Christian County Chamber of Commerce. My team and I would love the opportunity to earn your trust and your business!
