Your Everyday Hero: Daniel D.

My hero is my husband. He is an amazing man, especially to me. We have been married 33 years and his example of showing love is unsurpassed. He is always kind, courteous, patient, and giving. He is very courageous when confronted with difficult situations. He helps guide people to improve their lives and inspires them to improve their character. He attends college part-time and helps students by being a good friend and takes time whenever they need help academically or when they need someone to talk to. He serves his family and his community unselfishly.

I am very proud of my husband and I know that without a doubt that my life is better because of him. I am continually changed and challenged because of his example. I was in a serious car accident that nearly took my life about a year ago and he took such great and careful care of me while I was recovering. He had to do everything for me plus take care of his job, college classes, etc. for six months until I could begin to get back to functioning normally.

He gives and gives, and I always know it is with LOVE.
