“Combined Insurance colleagues enjoyed a beautiful day of golf and goodwill to support USO Illinois and all the terrific work they do for our Active Duty, Guard and Reserve military and their families,” said Bob Wiedower, Vice President of Sales Development and Military Programs for Combined Insurance. “I am so proud that we were able to raise so much money in one day.”

“We are incredibly grateful for the support of Combined Insurance and Bob Wiedower’s time, energy and passion as a board member,” Ruble said. “We salute our partners at Combined Insurance for helping us make a difference in the lives of service members and their families.”
Thank you to Combined Insurance and Bob Weidower for their generosity.
