REALTOR® Mary Looper was awarded the George and Suzy Schneider Service Award during the Annual Awards Celebration of F.C. Tucker Advantage in Greencastle.
The award is named for George and Suzy Schneider, who were the previous owners of the real estate brokerage. Current owners, Chris and Michelle Skillern, instituted the award to recognize their agents who make a significant community impact, and to honor the legacy of George and Suzy’s contributions to the community. Looper was recognized for her dedication to giving back to the community, whether through her church or local outreach.
“Mary is a good friend who shows up when needed. Raised in Cloverdale, Mary takes great pride in her hometown and remains deeply connected to the people she serves. As a local real estate agent, she is committed to supporting her neighbors and strengthening the area she calls home. She truly enjoys being a member of Faith Baptist Church, and volunteering in any way, reflecting her ongoing dedication to service and community involvement,” said Michelle Skillern F.C. Tucker Advantage co-owner. “We call her our cheerleader."
Each year, the Schnieder's make a contribution of $200 to a charitable organization of the winner’s choice. Chris and Michelle match the Schneider's contribution. Mary matched both contributions making the total contribution $800 to the organization.
Mary chose - Cheyenne's Haven Home. Cheyenne's Haven offers healing and a forever home to horses who have endured the hardships of neglect, abuse or abandonment.
