Jim Jackson, MBA, CIC, CRM, CLU
Sr. Business Development Advocate

San Antonio, TX

Jim's journey through the insurance industry has been a remarkable one. From agency producer to owner and manager, he's been actively involved in various aspects of insurance, ranging from property and casualty to life insurance, health insurance, executive benefits, and retirement plans. Currently, he serves as an Employee Benefits Consultant in a local agency.

However, Jim's connection with Loss of Life Advocates (LOLA) goes beyond his professional life. It's deeply personal for him. He had the profound experience of being his wife's primary caregiver for four years, during which they had time to prepare for her passing. Despite their preparations, when the inevitable moment came, their family and loved ones weren't fully ready. Jim found himself in a state of shock, unable to think clearly and struggling with the logistics of all that needed to be done.

In his own words, Jim highlights the importance of having a LOLA Advocate in such situations. The support and comfort they provide allow families to focus on mourning and grieving, knowing that someone capable can handle the necessary affairs. This support extends not only to the time of the loved one's passing but also during the challenging months that follow when clear thinking and rational decision-making can be elusive.

Jim's story reminds us that mourning and grieving are essential steps toward healing. When individuals are unable to process their grief, it can become hidden or denied, potentially resurfacing years later. A LOLA Advocate, as Jim emphasizes, does more than manage logistics; they play a vital role in helping loved ones take their first steps toward healing, offering the most critical support possible.
