Jay Geddings of the financial services firm Edward Jones in Columbus recently won the firm’s exclusive Spirit of Caring Award designed to recognize those financial advisors who exemplify the values, culture and spirit of giving back.

Jim Weddle, the firm’s managing partner, calls Geddings a leader in the firm and an example of what a dedicated Edward Jones financial advisor can achieve.

“Jay has demonstrated unyielding dedication to giving back to his clients, community, other financial advisors, branch teams and their regional network,” Weddle said.

Geddings said he is honored to receive the award.

“Edward Jones is a partnership. That structure is not just financial, it’s a philosophy,” Geddings said. “We work together, help each other and all share in the rewards of working with long-term individual investors. That brings out the best in everyone.”

Geddings was one of only 256 financial advisors out of the firm’s more than 15.000 financial advisors to receive the award.
