BUFFALO, N.Y., January 6, 2010 – In addition to auto, home, umbrella and specialty insurance, AAA Western and Central New York announced today that it has added life insurance to its suite of insurance offerings.

Offering additional peace of mind for families, AAA’s newest products include term, universal and whole life insurance, as well as disability, long-term care, guaranteed issue life insurance, and annuities.

According to the Life and Health Insurance Foundation for Education, one third of adults in the United States carry no life insurance at all. Of those who have life coverage, most rely only on insurance provided by an employer, leaving them without coverage if they lose their job.

“Every family’s insurance needs are different,” said David Weber, Vice President of AAA Members Insurance Agency of New York Inc. “Life insurance can help you and your loved ones meet important financial needs beyond final expenses, such as mortgage payments, education funding, debt repayment, and medical and daily living expenses.”
