Your Everyday Hero: Xavier C.

I am here to talk about my stepfather who had married my mother in 1994 for he loved her very much despite the fact she had three children. I am 34 now but at that time I felt very strongly that it was too soon for the two of them to get married. He was persistent and he believed very strongly in himself and his principles and beliefs in life. A man of high esteem in life yet he went through a period in time when he was really struggling to make ends meet and so he persevered and finally today he holds a stable job. In my eyes, and through all the years to come, I will always cherish this person in my life even more than my own father.
