Who Is Your Hero?

Your Everyday Hero: Craig H.

I would like to nominate my husband as a hero, not only because he is a wonderful husband, but also because he is a great friend. Craig is a high school History teacher, basketball coach, student advisor and shooting team coach. He is also active in his community though his church and local fire department. He is always there to help, whether it's a friend in need, or a complete stranger. Many times I have seen Craig go out of his way to help someone. He teaches not only in the classroom but though his actions outside the classroom. I have learned to be a better person though him. I often ask his advice, because I know he looks at life differently than most: with strong values that were passed on to him through his parents. Craig doesn't see himself as a hero, but I do. Everyday he makes life better for others, and that is a hero to me.
