Earlier this year, the New York Life Insurance Company recognized its two most productive agents of 2022 for all of Central and Southern Virginia, both of whom came from the Mechanicsville office.

New Highland Baptist Welcomes Pastor

Everett R. Foxx Sr. was recognized as the overall “Agent of the Year” while Cherron B. Johnson was named “New Agent of the Year” for 2022. These distinctions are highly sought after by all the nearly 80 other agents serving from Williamsburg to Staunton and from Fredericksburg to South Hill and all the Northern Neck of Virginia. Having this achievement represented by two Mechanicsville agents is not only exciting, but also shows the level of commitment the Rutland Office has in servicing the residents of Mechanicsville and beyond. Five other highly qualified agents work out of the Rutland office and collectively all seven serve over 2,500 clients. This is a phenomenal accomplishment for the office started by William M. Weimer in opera- tion for the last 24 years, 14 in its current location, since this production represented 21% of all the New York Life business done in Central Virginia in 2022.

Everett R. Foxx Sr. began his career with New York Life in 2012 after working as an exceptional education teacher, then as VP of marketing and business development for Dominion Youth Services. He is an accomplished athlete, having played professional basketball for three years and being inducted into Ferrum College’s Sports Hall of Fame, where he still holds many records. He currently sits on the Board of Trustees at his alma mater. During his time with New York Life, he has been recognized as “New Agent of the Year” in 2014 and 2015 and “Agent of the Year” in 2017 and 2022. Foxx’s many achievements with New York Life reinforce his commitment to serving his clients’ financial needs. He specializes in life insurance and annuity products for families, individuals, and executives, including their entire employee bases for middle to large businesses. Foxx is uniquely positioned to help high-net worth clients, given his association with Nautilus®, a boutique consulting division of New York Life that assists qualified New York Life agents in solving estate tax and wealth accumulation issues for their clients.

Cherron B. Johnson be- gan his career in financial services with New York Life in 2020, after an accomplished career as a business and professional development consultant. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in government and economics from Harvard University. Johnson was inspired to focus on financial services because so many of his clients voiced a need for a trusted financial professional. Johnson’s proven integrity and track record of successfully solving his clients’ personal and professional challenges has made him a valued confidante to a vast network of individuals and businesses. He specializes in New York Life’s insurance and annuity suite of products, retirement, and estate conservation and tax diversification strategies.
