Ross Hoekstra

September is Life Insurance Awareness Month—a great time to pause and make sure the people you love have the financial support they may need if the unexpected happens. I’m Ross Hoekstra—an Iowa native from Sioux Center and a community-first State Farm agent since 2025. I’m here to help you protect what matters most through personalized conversations built on communication, service, and the details that matter to your life.

As summer wraps up and schedules shift, it’s a smart moment to review your insurance—especially life coverage—to see whether it still fits your goals and your household needs. Strengthening your “guardrails” early can help you feel more confident, whether you’re wrapping up summer plans, getting back into routines, or planning for what comes next. If life insurance is something you’ve been meaning to revisit, I’m here to help you understand your options in plain language.

I’m proud to support local teams as part of the Sioux Center Athletic Booster, Unity Athletic Booster and to sponsor Dordt University Athletics, celebrating standout players as the season continues. When I’m not working, I cherish time outdoors with my wife Stacy and our three amazing kids, exploring Iowa’s natural beauty and making memories together—because community and family are at the center of everything I do.
