People’s Choice celebrates the best of a crazy year he Fresno Bee’s annual People’s Choice Awards has always celebrated the best and the brightest people and places in the Central Valley. In a year where everything was different, this fact remains. The companies, people and places we celebrate here are the very best in our Valley. We celebrate them be­ cause despite immeasur­ able challenges, our win­ ners have demonstrated why they are Valley favor­ ites. Since March 2020, our winners have faced man­ dated closures and reg­ ulations and, in many cases, have been forced to

T

completely rethink the way they do business. When I sat down to write this column last year, we were just entering the quarantine. Nearly every business was shuttered and uncertainty clouded our future. We are still figuring out how to best balance safety and eco­ nomic needs. Many busi­ nesses have re­opened. Still others are closed, we hope temporarily. The challenges continue and will likely do so for a while as we wait for our vaccina­ tions and for life to return to what will become our new normal. When we were forced to remain home as the pan­

demic raged, many of us realized what we truly missed. I, for one, missed simple dinners out, sitting inside a restaurant at a small table and enjoying a quick supper with my husband. Others missed joining family at a Fresno State game, screaming to sup­ port our Bulldogs. We missed community. Going to the movies. Going to church. Going to the fair. Seeing the Clovis Rodeo in action. To recognize this fact, this year’s People’s Choice Awards has a new cate­ gory, Most Missed During COVID. And while a cate­ gory in a local contest

can’t begin to fully list what we all missed during 2020, we hope it is a start. Some things to know about this year’s awards: We kept categories in our count that are still strug­ gling, but still deserve to be recognized, Best Buffet and Best Local Festival or Event, for example. We have added categories we never expected we would need, but now can’t ima­ gine life without: Best To Go Drinks and Best Curb­ side. We also listed winners in various categories that may still be closed for a while. We’ve included contact information like address, telephone num­

Karen Parker-Bryant, 64, raises a hand skyward after she was released from Clovis Community Hospital, May 19, 2020, after a month and a half battle with COVID-19, including 25 days on a ventilator. As she sat in the sunlight for the first time in many weeks, she quietly expressed gratitude for simple things. "It's the little things we take for granted, that aren't to be overlooked," she said, "be thankful for everything you get, even if it's just to inhale and exhale, that's a blessing to be thankful for."
