Our Hometown Hero of the week is Lee Blackwell a firefighter in Oxford.

Lee was nominated by Lindsey who shared: Lee is dedicated to serving his community. He shows his support by working for several fire departments in the area. He is a full-time firefighter at Wake Forest FD, part-time at Oxford FD, and an Assistant Captain at Cornwall VFD. When Lee is not working, he is helping his Dad with his business or helping others that may need work done. If you see him at work, you will probably see him laughing with the ones around him as he likes to work hard, but keeps everyone’s spirits up with his playful attitude.

Thank you Lee for your service! We’re sending you a gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q to thank you for all you do!
