Samwell Tarly is maybe another, although he is certainly a coward and an oathbreaker.
That's the one big complaint I have about the show, that the only absolutes that are shown are dark ones. Yes, people are generally flawed, but the same terrible events that produce monsters also produce heroes. There doesn't have to be a happy ending, but is it too much to ask for a few more random acts of happiness along the way?

Has Tyrion done anything bad?
Sure, he's crass, but other than shooting his father on the ####ter, isn't he pretty much a 'good' character?
Jon Snow is objectively good.
Same with Ned, but he's dead of course.
Sir Davos?
Lots of good characters.
