SENATOR RAND PAUL PRESENTS HUNTER SHEARER WITH CONGRESSIONAL RECORD PROCLAMATION

United Country auctioneers and affiliates are not only expert and knowledgeable real estate professionals, but they are also active in their communities.

Hunter Shearer, Principal Auctioneer, Broker/Owner and Realtree United Country Land Pro in Albany, KY, was recently honored with a Congressional Proclamation for the Senate Small Business of the Week. Hunter is the owner of Hunter's Bar B Q in Albany.

Senator Rand Paul presented the award. Following a Paul staff member reading the verbiage from the official senate proclamation entered by Paul on April 15, the senator gave the floor to Shearer, who made a brief presentation as well.

In part, Shearer told the crowd: 

“I do welcome everybody, I did not prepare a speech nor do I have one, but I do want to send a shout out to a lot of my good folks. I want to thank the good Lord, number one, who makes it all possible.  I want to thank my wonderful family and friends, my work family as well, who are the real backbone behind our work that goes into all of this and all the other things we’re involved in – I do appreciate all of them.  My wonderful wife and children for their support, my mother and my grandparents. I was thinking this morning about what today was, being today that 76 years ago Japan surrendered to the United States and my late grandfather (Bill Shearer) who passed away just over a year ago, being a World War II veteran, he was a big inspiration and so were all of my other family members. Thinking of the soldiers and all that we have going on today we have chosen to fly the flag at half-staff. We welcome everyone here today and we are thankful for all the support that the community and everybody has given, because they make it all possible.”

Hunter was also recently recognized as a Top 40 under 40 by the Young Professionals of Lake Cumberland organization.
