Kent Robertson (pictured at top), president and CEO of Foundation Partners Group, is leaving the company and will be transitioning his responsibilities to Chris Blackwell, an adviser to Access Holdings, who will serve as interim CEO while the company searches for a new chief executive, according to  Lee Senderov, chief marketing and digital officer at FPG.

Blackwell was actively involved in the early stages of the Access-Foundation Partners partnership, and he will be supported by Bob Bukala, former Foundation Partners CEO and current board member and advisor, as well as the company’s strong leadership team made up of experienced business executives and veteran funeral service professionals.

Robertson joined Foundation Partners in March 2020, and the Foundation Partners team will always be grateful for his leadership, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic when he led the company through some of the industry’s most challenging days, the company stated.

“Today, the company stands ready to begin the next chapter of its evolution. We remain focused on creating the funeral home of the future by accelerating our digital efforts, driving growth and providing families with the best possible experience,” Senderov said. “We look forward to announcing our new CEO and some exciting new initiatives in the weeks and months ahead.”
