About Us

Our History

This agency was established in 1961 by Martin and Mabel Nolan on a card table in their bedroom. It grew, and they moved it into another room in their home. Today, the home they lived in is completely occupied by the agency.

In 1983, the agency was sold to their son, Bob Nolan. The agency continued to grow and prosper throughout all these years. It has been a positive asset to our community by its support of numerous community and school-related projects and activities. After 30 years of ownership and seven years after the death of Martin, the agency has changed its name to better identify who and what we are as an ongoing business enterprise. 

In 2023, Bob retired and sold the agency to a local Muskegon insurance agency that is part of the Diebold Family of Companies. With the new team in place, access to additional insurance company products and resources, the Nolan Agency is positioned to remain a family owned, community-oriented company for another 60 years.
