The New Brunswick Real Estate Association (NBREA) recently presented this year’s Dave Hawkins Award to Ruth Ferguson-Shaw, a Woodstock Realtor with more than 28 years in the real estate industry.
The Dave Hawkins Award is presented annually to an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the real estate industry in New Brunswick.
Ferguson-Shaw has been a leader in organized real estate at many levels, the association says. She has been a licensed Realtor since 1988 and has taught pre-licensing courses for the province.
In 2014 Ferguson-Shaw was the recipient of the first Volunteer of the Year Award presented by the Fredericton Real Estate Board for community service and volunteerism. She has served as president of the local Chamber of Commerce, Florenceville Rotary Club, the local school board and many other endeavours.
Ferguson-Shaw’s motto is: “Treat every customer and client like family.”
She has a family farm upbringing and for many years owned and operated quarter horse boarding, lessons and show stables in Florenceville.
