John Patrick (“Pat”) Sheridan

Owner, Auctioneer/Appraiser, Realtor with Ohio Real Estate Auctions LLC Pat Sheridan was born in Athens and owns the family farm where he raised his family. After high school graduation from Rome-Canaan, Pat attended Ohio State University. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy Seabees serving both in Vietnam and the Antarctica. He then returned to OSU to complete his bachelors and masters degrees in education, and taught in Marion County for a couple years.

In 1975, Pat and his family moved back to Athens County to fulfill his dream of teaching vocational agriculture at his alma mater school – Federal Hocking.

It wasn’t long before Pat was helping his uncle, C.E. “Ed” Sheridan, in his auction business. Ed had been a successful auctioneer in the area for many years. Pat completed his apprenticeship and received his license in 1978. Because Pat felt the Athens area was Ed’s territory, he continued to work with Ed as needed but waited until Ed and his wife, Thelma, retired from the profession in 1983 to begin advertising and building his own reputation. Sheridan’s Shamrock Auction Service is recognized as one of the premiere auction firms throughout southeastern Ohio.


In early 1999, Pat retired from teaching high school after 32 years and moved on teaching as Adjunct Professor at Ohio University, College of Communication.  He received his real estate license and is affiliated with Ohio Real Estate Auctions LLC. He promotes the auction method of selling real estate in southeastern Ohio. In addition, both Pat & Wanda are on the Athens County Court approved list of appraisers for the area handling appraisals for estates, insurance, and divorces.  Pat is a life-time member of the Ohio Auctioneers Association and a member of the National Auctioneers Association.  Wanda is a life-time member and on the board of the Ohio Auctioneers Association Auxiliary and has served as President.
