KKBN Hard Working Man Winners
- Hard Working Man 04.31.26Joshua Phillips
I would love to nominate my husband, Joshua Phillips Short, for the Hard Working Man Contest because he truly is the hardest working man I know.Josh works full-time for the City of Dixon in pool maintenance and management, and he takes so much pride in his work. He keeps the pools looking pristine and is constantly getting great feedback because he truly cares about doing a good job. He starts his days early, working from 6:00 AM to 3:30 PM, and after a full day he still comes home ready to be a dad and a husband. On top of his city job, he also owns and runs his own business, Solo Pool Service. He started it about five years ago and has grown it to around 60 customers and counting. His business has grown so much that he even has an employee helping him now. Watching him build something like that from the ground up has been so inspiring to me. Even with all of that, he still works hard at home too. We live on a small farm in Dixon, California with 10 goats, around 30 chickens, and our dogs and cats. Josh built our chicken coop by hand, built the goat pens, maintains everything on our property, and is always fixing or building something to make our home better. Every winter he spends weekends cutting and stacking wood to keep our home warm. What amazes me the most is that no matter how hard he works, he still makes time for our family. He comes home for dinner, helps with our daughter, and shows up every day as an incredible husband and father. He truly goes above and beyond for us, whether that’s working long hours, building things for our home, or doing whatever he can to make sure our family is taken care of. Josh is the love of my life and my best friend. I thank God every day for bringing him into my life. I can’t wait to keep making more memories with him and growing our family together. His birthday is March 28, and it would mean the world for him to receive this recognition because he absolutely deserves it. In my eyes and in our family’s eyes, he will always be the hardest working man. Nominated with love by his wife, Morgan Short Dixon, California

Randy Morris

My man deserves to win the Hard Working Man contest because he shows up every single day — for his job at , for our home, and for our family.
He commutes an hour each way to work at Hilmar Cheese, yet he never walks through the door too tired to help. Whether it’s fixing something around the house, (if something breaks he doesn’t just replace it, he outsmarts it) tackling chores without being asked, or tinkering away to make our property better, he takes pride in providing and caring for the life we’re building together.
What makes him truly special is the time he pours into my grandchild. He builds things for him, teaches him how to use tools, and shows him what patience and hard work look like in real life. He isn’t just fixing things — he’s building memories and shaping a little heart that looks up to him.
Even with all of that, he still finds the energy to be a loving, supportive boyfriend. He listens, he cares, and he makes sure we feel safe and valued every day.
To me, hard work isn’t just about long hours — it’s about dedication, love, and showing up for the people who matter most. And that’s exactly who he is.

I nominate my husband for hard working man of the week because he has endlessly been working 6 days a week to provide and support our family so I can take the opportunity to be home with our girls. Even after a very challenging year for our family he has shown up everyday to create a better life for us. The girls and I are so grateful to have him!

Nate Streich

Nate is a hard working man because he never stops striving to improve our home and our day to day lives. He built our house and turned it into a cozy home, he maintains our property daily always doing repairs and improvements while showing up to work every day and still manages to spend quality time with our two young boys and 3 active dogs. If that wasn’t enough, he is going to school full time online and in person. He is our support, strength and foundation of our family.

Kyle Garlick

Law enforcement isn’t just a job. Kyle works night shifts as well as spends most of his days off at trainings to better his future and meet his career goals. Often times dealing with physical and mental endurance, and the willingness to put himself in harm’s way to protect others as well as his own family. Working in law enforcement results in high-stress situations, trauma, split-second decisions, and the emotional weight of what they see, all while staying professional and composed. Kyle balances shift work that disrupts sleep and family time, yet he still shows up for his family every day! Kyle is a brand-new dad to our 10 week old son and I know our son will grow up to be proud of his hard working daddy! We love you and all you do for us!

Emmit Hatler
Emmit has been working hard all his life, for his dad, for friends, for Gus’s Steakhouse in the past, and for SMCI as a welder. He graduated from Columbia College with his welding certificates before he turned 18, and then again before he turned 19 with an associates in automotive sciences. He is the hardest working, most encouraging, joyful, loving, and genuine person I know. He cares so deeply for everyone around him and pours into them with everything he has. He’s only 20, and the most impressive person I’ve ever seen. He wakes up between 4:00 and 5:30am depending on the day, and works 8-12 hours a day with SMCI (and sometimes longer). Right now, he is also working a second welding job that keeps him until about 8-11pm. He is so dedicated to providing for us, building us a strong future, and pursuing his own welding business. Every one of his acts is a labor of love and he gives all the credit to God. He comes home, after an extremely long and difficult day, with a warm heart and a smile, willing to lend me a hand with whatever I need. I am so beyond proud of him and thankful for who he is as man and how hard he works.Emilie Hatler

Denver Bedford
I want to nominate my husband for the hardest working man in Tuolumne, not only does he get up and works 12 hr days + at SPI, but he comes home after a long day, helps me around house, plays with our 1-year-old son and his 4-legged children as well. We love you so much and thank you for all you do for us. The world we live in with you, would not be the same if we didn’t have such a hard-working man in our lives.

Wesley Beuving

Our dad is a hardworking man because he consistently puts in effort—often without complaint—to provide, support, and create a better life for those he loves. He shows dedication through his actions, takes responsibility seriously, and keeps going even when things are challenging. His commitment and perseverance are clear signs of his strong character and love for his family.
