About Us
V.M. Ritter founded Ritter Insurance in 1936. He was a community leader and
long time manager of the local Grahams Department Store. When he was ordered
to move to another town, he decided not to leave Winterset. Instead he purchased
an existing insurance agency and started his new career. Later his sons, Loren
and Kenneth, joined him in the insurance business. Kenneth Ritter was also
a community leader and was active in the agency until his death in 1981. The
current owner is Leon Hendricks, the son-in-law of Kenneth Ritter. He joined
Ritter Insurance in 1979 and has been involved in several service and business
groups in Winterset.
