Who Is Your Hero?

Do you have a personal hero? Tell us about them. It doesn’t have to be perfect to make a difference in someone else’s life.

Your Everyday Hero: Susan B.

A mother. A wife. A friend. Generous beyond expectation and committed to all of the things important in her life.

Susan B., together with her husband, Mike, raised three sons. All the while, she gave them the spiritual support and guidance they needed, loved them deeply and unconditionally, and found the time to share herself with others.

If anyone she knew had a need-however great or small—she would respond. Buying groceries, providing transportation, cleaning a home—whatever the need, she answered.

She found a special place to use her selfless energy: Friendship house, a mission arm of First Baptist church of Garland. Now twenty years or so later, she remains committed to helping others.

She is such a wonderful example of living a balanced life, full of love and devotion to God, family, and community.
