Together with Ring, we're working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories. This submission comes from Sandra R. Burrows who nominated Lisa Soik of Oak Creek. Lisa worked hard to support her son, and put in the extra time to help her sister, who battled metastatic cancer.
