Roy L. Parker, of the financial services firm Edward Jones in Washington, recently won the firm’s Jim Harrod Award for his exceptional achievement in building client relationships.

“It’s truly an honor to receive recognition for building relationships with those clients we serve,” Parker said. “And it’s quite inspirational to receive an award named after a firm legend such as Jim Harrod who was dedicated to individual investors and understood each investor’s unique financial goals.”
