My wife, Linda, and I have lived in Blue Springs, Missouri for over 45 years, and raised our two children here. We enjoy traveling as well as spending time with our three beautiful grandchildren.

I really enjoy being a State Farm Agent. We have a well-established team who I think of as family. I care for a lot of my relatives because I know that nobody will take better care of them than me and my team. By that same token, I like to treat our customers as family too. We would love to add you and your loved ones to our State Farm family!

At Steve Shipman’s State Farm, we understand that insurance can be unclear and frustrating. We would be ecstatic to be able to assist you with your individual insurance and financial services. Call us today for a free auto quote or to learn how to bundle your auto and home together. We can also help when you are relocating to the Kansas City metro area, both in Missouri and Kansas. We service customers in Independence, Lees Summit, Grain Valley, and other cities in Eastern Jackson Counties. Please feel free to reach out to us by phone or email, or even stop by our office! We would love to meet you. Whether you prefer phone, email, or stop by, we would be glad to help you learn about life insurance or how to protect your family from any unexpected situations.

Linda Shipman State Farm Agent Team Member

Linda Shipman

Office Manager

As Steve often refers to me, I am his "first wife" or his "favorite wife". Actually I am his only wife. We met in college where I got my business administration degree. We have been married for 48 years so I have always been around and involved, but most of the early years I was at home raising our two kids. When our youngest went to college, my career really began. Although I am licensed to help you with your auto insurance and home insurance, my job is Office Manager. I primarily take care of payroll, paying bills, supplies, and writing scripts like this! Anything non-insurance. Since many of our insureds are our friends or have become our friends, I love seeing them when they come in the office. And I love to help whenever I can. Please stop in to see us or give us a call. We are here to help make life go right!

Becka Valentine State Farm Agent Team Member

Becka Valentine

If she gets any free time, she loves going on walks and making crafts with her Cricut machine.

Becka recently became the newest member of our team but has known Steve and Linda for many years through her previous employment. Becka is eager to help you with your car insurance and renters’ insurance needs, so feel free to stop in and say hello!
