 Helping to maintain a solid community is where it’s at for Jon Jamieson
Jon Jamieson, the owner and principal of Jamieson Insurance Agency in Waitsfield, and proud RABA member, stands in the perennial garden he planted at the front of his company’s headquarters on Vermont 100. An avid sportsman — he skis, fishes, hikes and bikes — he has passed on to his daughter the love for gardening he learned from his mother. Jon Jamieson’s roots run deep in the Mad River Valley — as deep as 1798, when his ancestors settled the town of Waitsfield. That’s not the only reason, though, that residents of central Vermont have little difficulty recognizing the name of his company, Jamieson Insurance . For almost 15 years, a series of laugh-out-loud funny, even award-winning radio and television commercials airing on WDEV radio and on cable television, have kept the name of “Little Dickie Jamieson” in the public eye.
