lisah@macleodlorway.comOur History
In December 1980, Bernard H. Morash, a manager with London Life for 18 years, decided to strike out on his own and purchased two smaller agencies, E B Morrison Agencies and Aubrey Campbell Agencies. He moved the two agencies into a new location on Portland Street and a few years later, purchased the two buildings on Ochterloney that house the office to this day. That formed the foundation of Bernard H Morash Agencies Ltd. Over the years he purchased other small agencies and combined them with his own (Len Pottie Insurance and Peterson Insurance). BH Morash Insurance joined the MacLeod Lorway team in 2002.
