Mike Yardley

Mike is a lifelong mechanic -- a proud family man and the definition of an unsung hero. He's the type of person who will stop off on the side of the road and help you fix your vehicle if you're having car trouble. He loves fixing up old vehicles and giving them a new lease on life.

Kim Holloway

Kim is making it easier for girls to create a healthy lifestyle through Girls on the Run. She says, "It's all about meeting girls where they are and encouraging their journey to a healthy lifestyle, whether it's physical or emotional."

Rodney Depoe

In 2021, Rodney Depoe saved a man's life. After seeing a boat rush in to the fishing access near his home, Rodney soon learned that an off duty firefighter had collapsed, having had a heart attack. He quickly ran to his home and called 911, then grabbed his AED from his work truck. Rushing back to the scene, he used the AED and CPR to save this man's life.
