The best insurance there is - Dad.

In AP’s White Plains office, Richard Canter is the Agency President. While most colleagues call him Richard, one calls him, “Dad.” That’s because Alex Canter, Richard’s son, is the Senior Vice President at the White Plains office.

“I’m very proud of Alex and the hard work he has put into his career. Now he is at the stage of offering me constructive criticism and I have learned to take it,” says Richard. “We have a lot in common and working together at AP is just another example of how we think alike. We both have a shared vision of success for AP and specifically our White Plains office and team of professionals.”

“I have the ultimate mentor in my dad which has been invaluable to me,” says Alex. “I get to watch the best in the business every day. Rich is the hardest working person I know. If I am able to do half of what he has done in his career, mine will be considered a success.”

We are proud to celebrate all the fathers, grandfathers, in-laws, mentors, and father figures who help us to grow each day. Whether you are a dad or like a dad, we could not do it without you.
