SelectQuote, Inc. (NYSE:SLQT) is mourning the passing of William Thomas "Tom" Grant II, Vice Chairman and former President of the company, who passed away on July 1, 2025, following a battle with cancer. Tom was instrumental in formulating and executing SelectQuote's strategy over the past fifteen years as the business evolved from a term life insurance brokerage into a diversified insurance and rapidly-growing healthcare services business.
SelectQuote's CEO, Tim Danker, stated that "Tom's mark on SelectQuote was profound and cannot be overstated. The success of our company, and the millions of consumers we've helped, are directly attributable to the vision and leadership of Tom Grant." Tom's sons, Bill Grant and Bob Grant, will remain critical members of the SelectQuote executive team going forward, continuing to serve as the company's Chief Operating Officer and President, respectively.
