              HONORING THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF MR. JIM HUFF

 Mr. BUNNING. Mr. President, I pay tribute and congratulate Mr. 
Jim Huff of Northern Kentucky who was recently honored with one of the 
``Movers and Shakers'' awards for the Greater Cincinnati area. Mr. 
Huffs life accomplishments and dedication to Commonwealth of Kentucky 
have given me reason to be proud.
  Over the past 60 years, Mr. Huff has grown to be a leader both within 
the community of Northern Kentucky and within the real estate industry. 
He has served as chairman of the Kentucky Real Estate Commission for 
five consecutive terms. During this time he established a statewide 
errors and omissions insurance platform, which continues to serve the 
needs of Kentucky real estate practitioners today. In 1981, he was 
awarded Realtor of the Year by the Kenton-Boone Board of Realtors, for 
which he later served as president.
  Throughout his life, Mr. Huff has always been active in civic affairs 
in Northern Kentucky. He has been an integral part of his community 
serving on numerous boards, including Northern Kentucky University 
Foundation, Saint Elizabeth Medical Foundation, Kids Helping Kids, 
Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky Fine Arts Foundation and as a trustee 
for Thomas More College.
  The ``Movers and Shakers'' award of Northern Kentucky is an annual 
award presented to honor those within the greater Cincinnati region who 
stand as an example for all. It is presented by the Kentucky Enquirer, 
the Sales and Marketing Council of Northern Kentucky, The Home Builders 
Association of Northern Kentucky, and The Kentucky Post.
  As a Senator from Kentucky, I appreciate the devotion Mr. Huff has 
shown over the years to the citizens of Kentucky. I commend his efforts 
and hope his example of dedication and hard work will serve as an 
inspiration to the entire State.
