Stacey Hatcher Bishop, center in back among the nominees, was honored with the Chamber of Commerce Volunteer Award for her quiet but meaningful service to others throughout the community. Ellen Zornes said in her introduction that Bishop consistently helps people without seeking attention or recognition for her efforts. Among her contributions is Cally's Line, an anonymous tip line supporting local law enforcement and community safety. Family members shared that Bishop became especially focused on helping others after her cancer diagnosis, choosing to "pay it forward" in appreciation for the kindness shown to her during difficult times.
