Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Lisa Winger of Oil City. Lisa was recently recognized by the Venango Area Chamber of Commerce as the 2020 Citizen of the Year. According to the chamber, nominees are those who, ``in the face of danger, combat adversity through feats of ingenuity, courage, or strength, and those who perform great deeds or selfless acts for the common good.'' Susan Williams, executive director of the chamber, noted nominations for Lisa mentioned her impeccable character and that she was highly respected, a leader, and selfless. Lisa works at the AseraCare Hospice, where she counsels residents and their families by providing compassion, comfort, and advice. She truly lives a life of service. Outside of her work with AseraCare, Lisa has also established an Alzheimer's support group at the Oil City YMCA, and she leads the county's Toys for Tots program. A friend of Lisa's said in her nomination that Lisa ``works tirelessly for Venango County and dedicates herself to everything she does.'' I would like to congratulate Lisa on this much-deserved recognition and thank her for her commitment to serving her community. ____________________”
