"I feel that in life, we're always trying to find balance across business, family, and health. As we start to see success from the fruits of our labor, I think it's equally important to give back to what got us there in the first place, to those who helped provide that success. I think giving back is part of life, and it's something I'm proud to do. " Join Jake Johnson in making a difference in the future of independent funeral service.

"It is hard to put a value on the impact that our membership in Selected has provided. I can’t tell you how valuable it has been to our firm to be able to connect with our peers, to share best practices, and to learn from each other’s successes and mistakes. Donating to the Selected Educational Trust is a way to give back in an area that is so important to the future of funeral service.
