Your favorite superhero might be Hulk or Thor, but mine is my own Aunt. My Aunt Linda is my role model. She is the person I look up to for many reasons. Throughout her life, she was ill. At the moment, she is in a nursing home at the age of 66. Being sick, she never cared too much about herself, but always thinking about other people. Linda was a nurse, so caring about people was her day job. Linda never got married or had her own children, so she spoiled me to death. I think I had more toys at her house then at my own. Back when I was little, I used to go over to her house in Jonesville every weekend for church. That means, every Saturday at noon we watched the dramatic tv series, Young and the Restless. I will never forget sitting in her living room with a tv tray and ice cream, screaming at the characters. I would laugh and laugh with her. Spending so much time with her, she has taught me so many things, but mostly she taught me to be a kind, loving, and giving individual.
