Woman Donates 2,000 Meals To Hospitals: Livermore Hero

LIVERMORE, CA — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we’re working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Edelyn C., who nominated co-worker Lyn Woodring of Livermore.

Hero's job: Health Care

Reason for recognition: Since March she had been cooking tirelessly to donate to many nurses and healthcare staff in many hospitals here in the Bay Area. She also brings food to the hospital where she works for the staff to enjoy.

One thing to know: She’s my role model and well respected. She have donated 2,000 meals to many Hospitals, very humble, kind hearted, generous person who loves to take care of many people. Teaching her kids that showing real honest kindness, is what you receive, but give.

Thanks for all you do, Lyn!
