Cancer Nurse, Husband and Dada: Middletown Patch Hero

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

Here at Patch, we partnered with Ring to find local heroes.

This submission comes from Lauren Doll in Middletown, who nominated her husband, Keith.

Name: Keith Doll

Hometown: Middletown

Hero's job: Healthcare

Relationship to nominee: Husband

Reason for recognition: Keith, known as "Dada" to our 3-year-old and baby, is an oncology nurse at the world's largest private cancer center. He works on the front lines ensuring his cancer patients receive the treatment and support they need and deserve during this pandemic, and always.

One thing to know: I'll always remember a card that the mother of a son Keith cared for wrote to him. This mother could not define all that Keith was to her son during his time at the hospital. As a nurse, husband and Dada, Keith truly betters any definition.

Thank you for all you do, Keith Doll!
