A couple of weeks ago people were saying what fictional or nonfictional person they wanted to be! We also had a thread about superpowers!

But who are the real heroes in our lives? The people we emulate and gain strength from?

Who is your hero and why?

My deceased "Papa" Darrell Tow, he was an Army SSG and Drill Sergeant, he once jumped out of a tree and killed a wild boar with a ka-bar (true story, my aunt has the head to prove it and photos), he was also the most hard working man, I knew. I sure do miss him. R.I.P.

Pat Tillman - Everything about him from when he was a walk on at ASU. To Leaving the NFL to serve his country. Someone I admire from so many different perspectives

My Dad....he's been through some tough times and yet he has provided for me and my sister. He's a good man with the best intentions and I admire him for that. He always has the best attitude no matter what the circumstances. I'd love to be half the man he is

My parents, my wife, William Faulkner, Ernest Hemmingway, Pete Rose, and Roscoe P. Coltrane. My CA hero is Tom (Icehog3), even though I've never met him in person (Perry comes in a close second :-)).

Personally, my Mom and Dad. They set a standard that to this day I look up to trying to honor them with my pale efforts.

Globally, every single person in uniform that stands and protects our way of life. Easy to take for granted hard to have a way of life without.

My wife, Alina.

Brought three fantastic young men into this world.

Raised them to be good humans.

Works tirelessly.

Always sees the best in each person.

Never to judge.

The glass is always half full.

Loves unconditionally.

She will make an unbelievable Angle one day, if shes not already.
