Dear Member and Friends of the Buffalo Claims Association:
As my term as President of the Buffalo Claims Association comes to a close, I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude for the opportunity to serve this remarkable organization.
It has been an honor to work alongside such dedicated insurance professionals who share a commitment to professionalism, service, and the rule of law. Over the past year, we have faced challenges, celebrated achievements, and continued our work to strengthen our organization and support the people involved with it. None of this would have been possible without your engagement, support, and collaboration.
I am particularly proud of the funds we raised for the Center for Hope of WNY, a local organization which helps the victims of narcissistic abuse. I know that many local lives will be changed for the better because of the contributions we made to the Center for Hope of WNY.
I extend my deepest thanks to the Buffalo Claims Association board members whose tireless work keeps this association strong. I am confident that the incoming leadership will continue this important work with vision and integrity, and I look forward to supporting the Buffalo Claims Association in the years ahead.
Thank you for the trust you placed in me and for the privilege of serving as your President. I remain proud to be a member of the Buffalo Claims Association and consider myself lucky to work with so many amazing people in the insurance industry.
With gratitude and best wishes,
Kristen B. Degnan
Buffalo Claims Association President
2025
