@papa-pepper, I might be a little "late to market" here, but I would like to nominate @surfermarly who's a very active community member and who does a lot for Steemit-- especially in terms of helping newcomers, and also organizing various contests and challenges. Like you, she's a very interactive curator of the comments on her own posts and always has a friendly word for people... she has recently started developing an initiative for charities to use Steemit as fundraising venue-- a great example of what a good Steemian is!
Edited to add: Resteeming this!
i vote also for @surfermarly for all the reasons above and shes a smiley person also \o/
