About the Auck Dostal Agency
The Auck Dostal Agency, Inc. was formed in 1995 following the merger of two long-established independent insurance agencies in the Bucyrus area - The Auck Agency and the Neff-Dostal Agency, Inc.
The Neff-Dostal Agency, Inc.
The Neff-Dostal Agency, Inc. traces its origin to 1875. In 1921, following a merger, the agency was operated by Mr. Joseph R. Neff and Mr. Milton Lewis. After working for Aetna Life and Casualty, John M. Dostal formed a partnership with Mr. Neff and in 1956, the agency became the Neff-Dostal agency. The agency was incorporated in 1965. Over the years, Mr. Dostal purchased Mr. Neff's interest and Mr. Neff retired from the agency in December, 1969.
David G. Dostal joined the agency in 1969 following graduation from St. Joseph's College. In 1980, the agency purchased and remodeled a building located at 321 S. Sandusky Ave. that became the agency location. John M. Dostal passed away in 1987.
The Auck Agency
Samuel E. Auck and William H. Auck established Auck Bros. Insurance Agency in 1906. Samuel E. Auck's son, Donald, entered the agency in 1931 after graduating from The Ohio State University. Both Sam Auck and Donald Auck were active in the management of Bucyrus Building & Loan Co., the forerunner of First Federal Savings & Loan Assn. Following Sam Auck's death in 1955, the agency became known as the D.K. Auck Insurance Agency.
David M. Auck returned to Bucyrus and joined the agency in 1972. Following Don Auck's retirement in 1973, the agency became known as The Auck Agency and in 1975, relocated to the current location at 201 W. Charles St.
