The longstanding relationship with Foremost was moved to American Modern Insurance Group. Jim Roe served as president of the American Association of Managing General Agents, AAMGA.

Arlington/Roe moved to its current home office at 8900 Keystone Crossing in Indianapolis and opened an underwriting office in Geneva, Illinois, purchased Cooling Grumme & Mumford from Indiana Insurance Company, and, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, purchased Witters & Klap.

Andy Roe first and then Patrick Roe, two of Jim’s sons, joined the family-owned agency in the next few years.
