FRANKFORT, Ind. – Joe “Butch” Doan, a retired insurance agent and third-generation Frankfort Rotarian who spent more than three decades leading Coapstick Insurance Agency, has passed away.
Doan served as president of Coapstick Insurance Agency in Frankfort from 1971 to 2006 before continuing his career with Pillar Group Risk Management, where he focused on commercial insurance for local businesses, schools and municipalities. Known for his steady presence in civic life, he was a longtime member and honorary Rotarian of the Frankfort Rotary Club, where he served as club president, board member and was recognized as a Paul Harris Fellow.
Friends and colleagues remember him as a thoughtful professional who approached both clients and community service with quiet integrity, dry humor and a deep love for Frankfort and Clinton County. Doan served as Board Chairman for The Farmers Bank, PIP Board President and on several other boards in the Community.
Outside his professional and Rotary roles, Doan enjoyed golf, following Purdue sports and fishing, and he often shared stories of his family’s deep roots in the community. He is survived by his wife, Linda, and other family members.
