Why I do what I do

Why I do what I do

I’m passionate about helping my members determine their financial goals. We work together to create a plan based on their unique needs.

I serve members in…

Mississippi and throughout the United States.

I can help you plan for life using a variety of tools, including…

life insurance, annuities, mutual funds and variable annuities.

I enjoy working with…

families, those approaching retirement, small-business owners and people with unique situations that require detailed planning.

I attended…

Holmes Community College.

I am very proud of…

earning the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America. I am most proud of my daughter, Lillie Claire, and being given the chance to raise her in a wonderful community.

Before Modern Woodmen, I…

was a volunteer fireman, police officer and then an EMT, where I helped people daily. I now help people by planning for their financial future.

I chose Modern Woodmen because…

I enjoy helping other people, and Modern Woodmen allows me to help even more people through financial planning and fraternal benefits.

The best part of my career is…

being able to help people plan for their future and put together a plan that meets their needs.

A favorite moment in my career was when…

doing a social event where children were given plain cookies and icing to decorate them for Easter. The kids had so much fun, and I saw lots of smiles that night.

Our local Modern Woodmen chapter recently had the honor of surprising Tim McBride as this year’s Hometown Hero, and what a well-deserved recognition it is! Where do we even begin when it comes to the impact Tim has made in our community? With an incredible 47-year career at Delta Electric, Tim has worked tirelessly to keep the lights on especially through countless storms and natural disasters. Beyond his career, Tim is a devoted husband, dad, and granddad. He serves as a Sunday school teacher, deacon, and Rotarian, and gives his time and leadership to several organizations including the Board of Directors at Tyler Holmes Hospital, Christ’s Cross at the Crossroads, and the Bank of Winona. In many of these roles, he has stepped up as a leader, always putting others first. Tim truly represents what it means to serve and give back. 👏 Please join us in congratulating Tim McBride on being named this year’s Hometown Hero! #HometownHero #ModernWoodmen #CommunityStrong #WellDeserved

Matt and Shed, alongside fellow Modern Woodmen members, recently came together to support BJ McKay and his family after they tragically lost their home to a fire. Thanks to an incredible outpouring of generosity from our community, funds were raised to help the McKay's begin rebuilding and Modern Woodmen was proud to match $2,500 to make an even bigger impact. Even more exciting, the McKay family has officially closed on their new home and has started the process of moving in! 🏡 This is what it’s all about—neighbors helping neighbors and making a difference when it matters most. We’re proud to be part of a community that cares, and none of this would be possible without our amazing Modern Woodmen members. #CommunityStrong #ModernWoodmen #GivingBack #NeighborsHelpingNeighbors
