For Zack, this work is deeply personal. He was raised right in the middle of the horse industry, a passion he inherited from his late mother, Kathy Zeis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"617\" src=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/shelbyville\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/1786019784387-37a50210-34b7-475e-b38f-53ad2f21fff7_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/shelbyville\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/1786019784387-37a50210-34b7-475e-b38f-53ad2f21fff7_1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/shelbyville\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/1786019784387-37a50210-34b7-475e-b38f-53ad2f21fff7_1-980x590.jpg 980w, https:\/\/goodnewsmags.com\/shelbyville\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2026\/08\/1786019784387-37a50210-34b7-475e-b38f-53ad2f21fff7_1-480x289.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kathy was a beloved multi-time World Champion rider and a tireless advocate for the breed, whose presence was a staple at the historic Tennessee Walking Horse National Celebration. Today, her legacy lives on through Zack, who brings that same lifelong dedication to protecting the livelihood of his neighbors.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Zack\u2019s goal is simple: to protect the investments that local families work so hard to build. Whether a farm relies on cattle, crops, or the walking horses his family has loved for generations, Zack helps neighbors find the right plans for anything that eats or grows. By focusing on personal service and real relationships just off the Shelbyville town square, Zack ensures that every barn, tractor, field, and show stable gets the proper care it deserves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Contact Templeton &amp; Associates Insurance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>(931) 684-4380<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/templetonandassociatesinsurance.com\/\"><strong>www.templetonandassociatesinsurance.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This story is sponsored content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For decades, farming and equine traditions have been the backbone of local life, running on hard work, dedication, and sunrise starts.
