As fall brings families together for school activities, sporting events, and time at home, October can be a natural time to think about the people who depend on you. If your family, income, financial responsibilities, or future plans have changed, consider reviewing your life insurance needs and making sure your current protection still aligns with the people and goals that matter most.

Welcome to the State Farm Agent Heath Kilpatrick office in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. With more than 30 years in the insurance industry, I’ve helped individuals, families, and business owners understand their options and choose coverage that matches their goals—not a one-size-fits-all policy. As a longtime Eastern Iowa resident, I’m proud to be a local resource and a Good Neighbor for our community.

My team and I work with customers throughout the Cedar Rapids area, including Marion, Hiawatha, and Palo, and nearby communities like Robins, Toddville, Center Point, Urbana, and Atkins. We also serve customers across Linn County, Benton County, and Johnson County. If you’re commuting daily, we can help you explore State Farm Auto Insurance. If you’re looking ahead, we’ll walk you through Life Insurance options in a clear, straightforward way.

If you’re buying a home, moving, or settling into a new place, we can help you protect what matters with Homeowners Insurance, Condo Insurance, and Renters Insurance. Whether you’re reviewing an existing policy or starting fresh, we’ll help you understand coverage, deductibles, and the choices that make sense for your situation.

We also enjoy helping local entrepreneurs and growing teams across the region—from Fairfax to Coralville, and from North Liberty to Iowa City. If you’re a small business owner looking for coverage that supports day-to-day operations, we’ll help you evaluate Business Insurance options and build a plan that fits where you are now and where you’re headed.

Outside the office, I’m a proud dad and grandpa who loves spending time with family—especially outdoors. My wife and I enjoy reading, hiking, boating, and taking on home improvement projects, and I’m always up for a round of golf when time allows. Community matters to us, and we’re proud to support Eastern Iowa by sponsoring local youth sports and events and hosting community activities throughout the year.

If you’d like to compare coverage, request a quote, or simply ask questions, my team and I are here to help. Stop by our Cedar Rapids office or contact us today—we’d love to meet you.
