PAUL EMERY JR.

Hi!  I’m Paul Emery, when I turned 65 I started searching for my Medicare Insurance options.  I quickly realized that this was a very confusing topic, which made me more determined to understand how Medicare works.  This opened a door to a second career helping Eligible Medicare individuals navigate the Medicare maze. 

My career originally began in sales and marketing for companies such as Campbell Soup, Keebler and more.  Working for over 50 years in a corporate setting was very rewarding but nothing like what I get to do now.

I have been married to my wife for 65 years and we have moved over 31 times.  Some people would not like moving that many times, but I found that it opened door to new adventures and meeting people and forming lasting relationships.  When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and I still have a love for sports, particularly football!  Music has been a big part of my life such as playing the trumpet and singing in choirs and quartets.  Even though it has been a long time since I have done those activities, music is still a love. 

Not many people get the chance to have a career in the later years, but I have loved the challenge and excitement of creating a lasting business along side my daughter. 

SHARI Emery ROBERTS

Hi! I’m Shari Roberts, and I’m passionate about insurance! Actually, my passion is helping people, and I do that by making sure they’re covered with the best health insurance plans that fit their needs. My clients view me as a trusted advisor, not an insurance salesperson. And I take that role seriously.

Customer service is in my blood. I started working in the insurance industry when I was nineteen, and I learned the value of providing people with superior service. It starts with listening. Every time I hear someone else’s story, I learn and grow from them. I’m truly interested in what’s going on in my clients’ lives, and learning more about them helps me figure out how to best serve them. Let’s face it. There are a lot of different insurance plans out there, and what makes sense for one person might not be the right fit for the next person.

My dad and I founded Emery & Roberts, LLC which has provided us the ability to collaborate and serve our community.  I have worked with Travelers Insurance as well as State Farm insurance before launching my own healthcare business. 

On a personal level, I’m a morning person! I love all kinds of music, but favor musicals (Hello, Dolly!) and classical music. I play piano, and one of my favorite songs of all time is Somewhere Over the Rainbow.   I have been married for over 40 years and have two daughters and a son, five grandchildren and I’m also a dog mom to an 85lb crazy lab/greyhound rescue.  In my spare time I love to read self-help books!

  • "Knowledgeable & efficient"

    I have enjoyed working with Shari. She is knowledgeable, efficient, always addressing all my questions. She’s pleasant to work with and mostly, she really cares about her clients – Marion

  • "Available & Responsive"

    I have been very pleased with all the help my husband and I received from Paul when originally choosing our plans. It was good to be able to compare two or three plans to obtain the coverage that was important to us. We have been satisfied that the plans were a good fit for us. Paul has always been available for ongoing consultation and questions, responding in a timely manner. Paul’s extensive knowledge of various companies and their plans is impressive. I would highly recommend him and his services – Karen and Cal

  • "Full of Wisdom & guidance"

    In 2011, my wife and I returned from a 6-month missions’ trip and needed to get enrolled in a Medicare plan right away. I believe God helped us find the name of Paul Emery (we are not sure how) and he came and walked us through the many options. With his helpful guidance we joined Humana Advantage HMO and have been very pleased. On a good number of occasions (even when out of state) we have called Paul and he has always had knowledge, wisdom, and guidance for us. We highly recommend Paul and Shari! – The Irelands

  • "A gift to all of us"

    Shari has been incredibly helpful as I transitioned from a traditional employee health plan to a marketplace insurance plan. She gracefully helped me to navigate plan changes, looking for my current doctors, sign-in issues and more. I am so grateful to have the opportunity to work with Shari; she is a gift to all of us. Her knowledge, kindness and efficiency all make a difficult process much smoother and easier. I cannot emphasize enough how blessed I feel to have found Shari to work with. – Celina

  • "Patient & Understanding"

    Our family respects Mr. Paul Emery’s health insurance advisory services. His time, patience and understanding is key to his competence. Researching, comparing, and evaluating all possibilities. We couldn’t be more pleased. Mr. Emery provided our family peace of mind, knowing my sister’s health needs are being addressed.

    With sincere admiration,
    The Cihak family

  • "Smooth & Painless"

    Shari has made my (sometimes confusing) conversion to Medicare plans smooth and painless. She is very knowledgeable and thoroughly taught me Medicare basics when we met. She already had researched possible plans for me. She is prompt to answer questions, easy to understand, and makes you feel comfortable. She continues to look out for your best interest each year at enrollment time. When I had a couple hiccups along the way, she advised me what to do, or she will handle it for me. I could not imagine a better agent than her! – Marian

  • "Honest & Trustworthy"

    I have been doing business with Paul Emery for many years, he is the most honest, trustworthy person that I have ever known. He gets back to you quickly and is most helpful on helping you with all your needs and questions. Cannot say enough good about him. Thank you Paul. – Gregory
