David Coday

Welcome to the David Coday State Farm Agent office in Ava, Missouri! I’ve lived in Ava for almost three decades and have been deeply connected to this area personally and professionally. In 1978, I opened my State Farm office, and I’ve been dedicated to protecting my neighbors ever since. As an experienced agent, I offer a wide range of insurance products to meet your needs, including Auto, Home, Life, Renters, Business Insurance, and more. My team and I proudly serve Ava, Gainesville, Squires, Mansfield, Seymour, Hartville, and beyond. We are committed to delivering personalized service with every interaction. As a family-oriented business with deep local roots, my team is here to help you confidently navigate life’s challenges. Whether you’re a long-time resident or new to the area, stop by or call us — we’d be honored to assist you with your insurance needs. I graduated from Missouri State University with a marketing degree, which provided the foundation for my successful career. Outside the office, I enjoy golfing, fishing, traveling, and watching sports. I’m also actively involved in our community as a member of the Ava Chamber of Commerce, the Mansfield Chamber of Commerce, and the Community Foundation of the Ozarks. My career has been marked by numerous successes, including serving in the U.S. Marine Corps and earning honors such as the State Farm Crystal Excellence Qualifier, National Convention Qualifier, and Ambassador Travel Qualifier. While these accolades are meaningful, my greatest pride comes from building long-lasting relationships with my customers and helping them plan for their future. At home, I share my life with my wife of 55 years, Barbara. We are blessed with two children — a son who lives with his family in Kansas City, Missouri, and a daughter who resides with her family in Gilbert, Arizona.
