Idell Johnston

The crisp days and cool evenings invite us to slow down and enjoy the things that are important: family gatherings, seasonal events, and time spent outdoors in the vibrant fall colors. It’s also a fine opportunity to take stock of your goals. At the Idell Johnston State Farm office, now located at 109 E. Division St. in Shawano, WI, my proven team and I are here to help you confirm that your coverage reflects where you are now and where you're headed. Whether you're preparing for the future or simply want to review your current plan, we're ready to guide you with a fresh perspective and a personalized approach.

A bit about me: I’m originally from Fresno, California, and my family and I relocated to Shawano in 2007—a decision we remain deeply grateful for. Shawano is our home now, and we prioritize giving back to our community. My husband, Michael, works alongside me in the office and also serves as the coordinator for Shawano’s Toys for Tots program. I’ve been privileged to serve on the Shawano Dollars for Scholars board and was honored to be the very first Big Sister matched in the Shawano chapter of Big Brothers Big Sisters when it launched in 2014. Together, Michael and I actively participate in the Rotary International Youth Exchange program, the Red River Riders, Shawano Optimists, and the Shawano Business Improvement District. Additionally, I’ve been a committed member of 100 Women Who Care since its inception in Shawano County. In recognition of our community involvement, Michael and I were named “Distinguished Citizens of the Year” by the Shawano Chamber of Commerce in 2021.

Our dedication to this community extends through our two sons, both Shawano High School graduates who pursued their college education in Wisconsin. I’m now a proud grandmother to two wonderful grandchildren who attend Shawano schools. Our eldest son, Grant, also works in the office and is the friendly voice you hear when you call—making serving Good Neighbors truly a family affair. I look forward to meeting you soon and hearing about how you stay connected to this remarkable community.

Our commitment to you goes beyond paperwork. We prioritize clear and honest communication and seamless service. That means no jargon, just straightforward answers and personalized guidance. When you work with us, you’ll experience a team that leads with know-how, care, and a genuine dedication to your needs.
