My Father Is A Hero

When I think of a hero, I think of someone who is brave, strong, hardworking, trustworthy, and unselfish. Someone who can protect you and make life better; my dad has all of those qualities. My dad was raised by my grandma and had a very different life growing up compared to mine. He grew up where his brother now lives, outside of Brooks Oregon. He really liked riding 4-wheelers, motorcycles and skateboards when he was my age. He also really enjoyed drawing and learning. He graduated from McNary High School. After high school he went to college where he then had to drop out because of money reasons. Later on he went to college again and graduated with a degree in computers and engineering after I was born. Right after college he started working at Intel Corporation. After about 4 years he got a job at Lam Research where he works on wafers and chips for computers and

Even if we haven't grown out of our clothes my dad always works to get us new ones. When ever we worry about the price of something my dad says "Don't worry about the price I'll pay for it". When ever we have to travel far for sports he gets hotel rooms so we can get a good rest before the tournament. My dad works so many extra hours to make me happy and give us a good time.

Heroes come in many different forms. Heroes can be anyone, they can be your, mom, dad, sister, brother, etc. My hero is my best friend Sarah Watt. She’s kind, sweet, honest, and caring. We became friends because of the nice thing she done for me and I’ll never let it go.

A hero is someone that never falls, but gets up again and again, never losing sight of his dreams. My hero is a male, who is 42, stands 6'2 and is very strong and never gives up. He is a person that inspires me to think smart about things like working on stuff, and thinks before you do. My dad makes a positive impact on my life to work hard and stay busy.

Anyone who influences anyone else by saving or helping save his or her lives can be a hero. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. changed the lives of millions of people by bringing justice to minorities. Mahatma Gandhi, one of the greatest heroes, led a nonviolent revolution to free his country. Even a parent can be a hero to his or her child by leading them in the right direction. All teachers are heroes when they make it their job to teach a child anything that will help them in life. You don’t have to go to great lengths by risking your life to make a difference in someone else’s life.

My hero has made a huge impact on my life. They have always been there for me and supported my decisions. Whether it was a good or bad decision, I had always learned from it. When things got rough they always made sure we were happy and kept a smile on our face. One of these people were very sick but always managed to make sure we were okay. While the other one is taking care of us the best that they can he has many health issues as well. These people are my parents.

Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. They can be fictional or nonfictional. Maybe a hero is a child or possibly an ordinary person. People can also have multiple heroes. Whenever I think of my current hero, Andre Bryant comes to mind, he helped, connected, and a hard worker.

The first reason my dad is a true hero is because of all the amazing things he has done. When I asked him what selfless acts he has done

The reason that my dad is one of my heroes is because he's done a lot of things to save, and improve my life.When I was little, my mom thought I was choking on a penny. My dad drove home and to the hospital so fast that he lost a cop on the way. Although it might sound like he's not a hero because of this one reason, if he didn't hurry I might not be here today. He also worked a unhealthy and dangerous job back when we lived in Washington. His motivation was to make sure that our family had what we needed and wanted. Providing for my family was at the top of his priorities. My mom said, “He worked on ladders 3 stories high while breathing in bad fumes from paint and stain. By the end of the day he was usually passed out on the couch by 7.” When he wasn't working, he was usually either doing stuff with me like passing a football around, playing around in the backyard, or riding four wheelers. He even did cub scouts with me even though it wasn’t what he really wanted to do when he got off work. Not only did my dad save my life, but he also helped shape me into who I am today with the help of my

A hero can be at the burning house physically helping put out the fire, down the street putting their life on the line to catch the convict, or in the closest church spreading the word of their religion and how it has affect their life. Everywhere you go you can always find a hero nearby. The one that is like family to me that I consider a hero is my elementary teacher. She is there for anyone at any time. Starting at a young age, she was not always the best or brightest person around. She has told stories of the things that she has done and the trouble that she and her friends use to cause. In her late teens she decided this would not be the type of person that she wanted to be and decided to change the way that she was behaving. She started going to church and found programs that helped her change her way. After a while she started to reach out to her old friends and eventually got a few of them to change with her. After a while of this she decided she needed to help more people and more families and not just the friends and family that she knows best. She started to go to college and became a teacher that way every year she could help out at least another twenty kids and their families. For the past 48 years she has continuously helped out these families year after year. She has also reached out even farther and has helped children out by being a foster parent. Almost every year she would be given a child or two and has had to raise the kid for the year until someone was able to properly give them a home. Many of these children had mental problems from being switched in and out of homes and once she got them she was able to fully understand them and help them out tremendously, then after a couple months they were able to find a permanent home where she would send them and then get her next child. Time after time this was done and she has help more than a dozen children get through this and at the

Have you ever had a hero in your life, someone that is always there for you when you need them? I did, I called him "my dad." My dad was the only person that could make me laugh when I was feeling down. My dad was that person who had so much love for his family. My dad was the person who I could call and he'd always pick up. My dad was the person who would drop everything just to help me. My dad was the biggest hero in my life and to this day, still is.

When the word "hero" is spoken, everyone has different thoughts. Some will think of super powers like flying and saving people from villains; while others have a certain person they know or have heard of that come to mind who have done something to make a difference in the lives of others but who is a hero to you? To answer this question you must first ask yourself what a hero is; what comes to your mind when someone says the word. When I am confronted with these questions I always have the same thoughts; smart, strong will power, and someone who stands up for what they believe is right.

He is very intelligent; he even took time to go back to college when he already had a career under his belt. Which brings him to being a hard worker, my dad is one of the hardest working people anyone will ever meet, if anything that man works too much. He is also very respectful to people, especially those in potion over him. My dad is also one of the bravest people on earth; he has had two very dangerous jobs. The first would be being a United States Marine. The second job would be his current job, which is being a Maricopa Deputy Sheriff. My dad is my hero because he has worked hard to maintain all of these qualities, and he practices them each and every

Christopher Reeve once said, "A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to preserve and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles." Everyday people get hit with obstacles but most people get scared and give up. A true hero however is one who gets up off the canvas and keeps growing no matter the circumstance. My mother is my hero because every single day of her life she gets up with a positive attitude and grinds no matter what. If she gets knocked down she always gets up and becomes stronger then when she fell. One of my mother's favorite quotes is a quote from les brown which states "When life knocks you down, try to land on your back. Because if you can look up, you can get up." She lives by this quote every day and

Heroes; something we all aspire to be, but easily recognize in others. Wait, how do we define what makes a hero, a hero? A hero is one who is kind, courageous, smart, determined and selfless. They often do what is better for the greater good and not themselves. This is seen in both Greek and Modern heroes, whether it is cutting off Medusa’s head or defeating the Riddler, they show these qualities in one way or another. We also see these qualities in parents, true everyday heroes. While they may not have super strength or the ability to fly, parents are the ultimate heroes in our lives, for they love for us without judgement and will always be there when we need them most. My father, William Romero, is a hero since it takes a true hero to
