Crop Insurance

Hello, my name is Colette Cross. For the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of working as a Customer Service Representative at Garnett Insurance, alongside Frank and Tana. I truly enjoy connecting with our clients, whether they call in or visit us at the office!

I grew up in Logan, NM, just 17 miles west of here, on a ranch that has been in my family for generations. Our agricultural roots run deep, tracing back to my great-great-grandparents who homesteaded in this area many years ago.

When I’m not at work, my favorite pastime is spending quality time with my husband, our children, grandchildren, and the rest of our family and friends!

Hunter is currently a junior at WT A&MU, pursuing a degree in Business Marketing.  He has consistently made the Dean’s Honor Roll during his studies. From a young age, Hunter has been involved in the family office, often juggling phone calls with homework and playing. At WT A&MU, he continues to support the family ranch and assist in the office as needed. Hunter has a keen interest in silversmithing and loves working with his hands in his free time. 

Hayden is an alumnus of WT A&MU, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in Business Marketing. Growing up in his family’s insurance office, he became familiar with the industry from a young age, often seen doing homework behind his mother’s desk or welcoming clients. During his time at WT, Hayden balanced his studies with academic excellence and was a member of the maroon platoon while also contributing to the family ranch. He has a strong passion for self-care and enjoys assisting friends and family at the gym when he isn’t in class or at work. 

Tana attended South Plains Jr. College and Texas Tech University. Tana came home to marry her high school sweetheart Frank in 2001. Throughout her career, Tana has explored various industries, often stating, “I have never encountered a job without something I didn’t love about it.” Her passion for helping others and engaging with people shines through in everything she does. 

Tana entered the insurance field in 2009 when she began working for Farm Bureau. Known among family and friends for her boundless energy, she has always juggled multiple roles. From running her own boutique to being the dedicated “Uber” for her kids, Tana embraces a busy lifestyle. Currently, she oversees marketing and philanthropic efforts within their agency.

In addition to her professional responsibilities, Tana has had the honor of serving on various boards within the agriculture industry, where she actively promotes agricultural awareness and education.

Frank Garnett and his wife, Tana, launched their insurance agency in 2014. With several years of experience in the industry under his belt. He had the desire to step out on his own and after sharing that aspiration with his wife their agency was born. 

Raised in Tucumcari, NM, Frank was immersed in a world of farming and ranching from a young age. He attended South Plains College until he returned home to help out on the family ranch. In the fall of 2001, he married his high school sweetheart, marking the beginning of a lifelong partnership.

Today, Frank is recognized as one of the leading insurance agents in New Mexico, specializing in Rainfall Insurance and Livestock Risk. Throughout the years, he has also had the honor of serving on various community boards, further demonstrating his commitment to giving back to the community.
