Alliance Insurance Agency, Inc. was founded in 1924
as “Sparks & Cage Insurance Agency.” Originally
located in Taft, Texas, the company was moved to Odem,
Texas and eventually to the current Sinton, Texas insurance
agency and Calallen, Texas insurance agency. The agency
has also shifted ownership within the Rippstein family
during this time.
The current owner, Stephen Rippstein, joined the firm
in 1987 and operated the agency along with his mother
Virginia Rippstein. They were the primary owners for
15 years until Virginia retired in 2002 after 35 years
in the insurance business.
Alliance Insurance Agency has operated out of two offices
since 1991. The first branch was opened in Odem, Texas
in 1984 and was relocated in 2004 to the new Calallen
office. On January 1, 1991 Alliance Insurance
Agency purchased two local independent agencies and combined
them to open the Sinton office.
It was on that same day that the agency name was changed
to Alliance Insurance Agency, Inc.
