It really is intended to recognize the very idea of spirit and caring and giving back to the community.

I am amazed about the caring and the giving from the community. We're not getting $5 and $10 checks but $50, $100, $250. They are just opening up their wallets and that keeps the shelters open and provides food....It's wonderful to see the caring from individuals to help others they don't even know.

She was caring, she was giving, she was supportive, she was tolerant … I never heard her turn anybody down who asked [for help]. In many ways, she set a great example for a lot of people.

Jeff Davis is one of the most giving and caring human beings I've come across in many years. I know he quietly helps people all the time.

I've never seen such a caring community. Anytime we run one of these funds, the response is almost overwhelming. It's one of the things that sets this community apart.

I really believe this is a caring community,
