While recently going through my Rolodex (yeah, I'm that old) and getting depressed over the many agencies long gone or absorbed by bigger fish, I came across a card for Don Eve, president of Eve Insurance Agency Inc. in Flint, Mich.

When I first spoke with Don years ago, I was writing for Business Insurance, and Flint was in the news with Michael Moore's controversial documentary, Roger & Me. With images of boarded-up houses and a mouldering downtown fresh in my mind, my first question to Don was something like, ”How are you surviving in such a tough market?” Given today's economy, that question is equally valid today.

So I was pleasantly surprised when a little Googling and e-mailing showed that not only is Eve Insurance still alive and kicking, but so is Don.
