The COVID-19 pandemic has upended most aspects of everyday life and thrust many community members into situations unthinkable a year ago. None of us could have imagined what we would be facing. 
And while the 12 past months have produced numerous stories of perseverance, few exemplify the spirit of selflessness, public service and bravery than the community's first responders, who are the Journal Gazette & Times-Courier Newsmaker of the Year 2020. 
This year, the title goes to the legions of doctors, nurses, police officers, paramedics, fire department personnel and medical staff who have fought tirelessly this year to keep us safe.
