Headquartered in Chowchilla, California, the agency works with Lincoln Heritage Life Insurance Company and supports policyholders and agents across the states listed on its website.
English and Spanish Language Support
Founder Ray Barragan Sr. was raised in a Mexican-American family and made English- and Spanish-language insurance information part of Golden Memorial’s outreach. Families may request bilingual assistance when discussing final expense coverage, application questions, and funeral-planning resources. Language availability should be confirmed when scheduling an appointment.
Community Involvement & Central Valley Support
Golden Memorial Insurance is rooted in California’s Central Valley. Following the legacy of founder Ray Barragan Sr., the Barragan family and Golden Memorial have supported local schools, youth sports, community programs, and healthcare initiatives across Madera County and the San Joaquin Valley, giving back to the agricultural communities that helped build the agency.
