Dr. Thomas M. Guyton Humanitarian Award-The Chamber of Commerce established this annual award in 1980. It is a special award – for Thomas M. Guyton. The person who receives this award is a “gift” to the community. It is given to someone who seeks to improve others lives, who gives and gives, but yet never asks or takes in return. This person is very deserving of this award. This person never complains of being too busy to get involved. This person is totally involved in their: church, work, etc. John J. Sparkman Citizenship Award- The Chamber established this award in 1998 in honor of Senator John J. Sparkman. He dedicated more than 40 years of tireless commitment and dedication to the United States, State of Alabama and Morgan County. The recipient of this award should be someone who has gone beyond the call of duty and has dedicated time and effort for the Hartselle area and Morgan County. E.R. Roberts Business Award-The Chamber gives this award annually since 1989. E.R. Roberts opened clothing store in downtown Hartselle in 1921 when he has 20 years old. He started his business on the corner of Main and Sycamore and stayed in business for 69 years until he died in 1990. He built his reputation of honesty and fair treatment to his customers and strong civic pride and support. In his days his reputation was remarkable and today’s day it would be almost unheard of. Mr. R accidentally over charged one of his customers $.17 on his purchase and he spent almost 2 hours looking for this person to give him back the $.17. He was a beloved and successful businessman in our town. He was successful not because of money made but because what he invested himself back into the community. That’s why he’s honored today and why Hartselle is a better place to live and there are still people like E.R. Roberts in the business community. Traits exhibited by this recipient are: Honesty, hard work, strong civic support, fair treatment, active in community, church, and chamber of commerce.
