Montana Legacy Insurance: Kelly Bonnell Returns to Livingston

A Legacy Returns to Its Roots

For the Bonnell-Bishop family, insurance isn't just a business—it's a tradition spanning five generations. Today, we're proud to announce that Kelly Bonnell (known locally in Livingston by her maiden name) is back in Livingston with the opening of Montana Legacy Insurance in the very community where her story began.

"Livingston has always held a special place in my heart," says Kelly Bonnell, Owner and Insurance Broker of Montana Legacy Insurance. "This community shaped my understanding of what Montana families and businesses need when it comes to protection. Opening our doors here feels like coming home."

A Century of Insurance Knowledge

Kelly Bonnell's insurance heritage dates back over a century, with each generation passing down not just industry expertise, but a commitment to integrity, personalized service, and community investment. Kelly began her insurance career with Farmers Insurance in 1989, earning her license on her 18th birthday—a testament to her early dedication to the industry.

After building her expertise serving the Livingston, Bozeman, and Flathead areas, and briefly providing services in Las Vegas in 2021, Kelly has returned to Montana with a strengthened portfolio of products and a vision: to create an agency that truly understands Montana's unique challenges.

More Than Just Policies

Montana Legacy Insurance isn't your typical insurance agency. Our team brings authentic Montana experience to every client relationship:

Breana, who joined our team in 2023, managed a farm/ranch in Northeast Montana before entering the insurance industry. This firsthand experience gives her genuine insight into the risks agricultural operations face. Her background as a successful silversmith business owner also brings a meticulous attention to detail that's invaluable when crafting protection plans.

"We don't just sell policies," explains Kelly. "We take the time to understand what you've worked so hard to build—whether that's a family home, a multi-generation ranch, or a growing business—and develop protection strategies that truly safeguard your legacy."

Comprehensive Protection, Montana Values

While our roots are in agricultural insurance, Montana Legacy Insurance offers comprehensive coverage solutions, including:

• Home and Property Insurance

• Auto and Vehicle Coverage

• Business and Commercial Insurance

• Life and Health Protection

• Farm and Ranch Specialized Coverage

  
  

What sets us apart is how we approach each client relationship—with genuine Montana values of honesty, personal attention, and a commitment to being there when you need us most.

A Special Invitation

As we settle into our new Livingston office, we invite our neighbors to stop by, say hello, and discover the Montana Legacy Insurance difference. Whether you're reviewing existing coverage or starting fresh, our team is ready to show you what five generations of insurance expertise can do for your peace of mind.

"Livingston is where I learned that insurance isn't about selling policies—it's about protecting people," Kelly reflects. "We're honored to continue that mission right here where it all began."
