Your Everyday Hero: Austin T.

He was a quiet man, small in stature. No outstanding features or great accomplishments other than raising ten children, working three jobs at times to support them and giving them a Christian start. There was always plenty of love to go around though sometimes not enough money. I recall one time just before Christmas overhearing him talking about how presents would be bought. After much deliberation, it was decided. "We'll have to go to the Credit Union again." We didn't always have what we wanted, but we never did without. My Hero, my Dad.
