My heroe's journey

My hero is my dad because he grew up with an abusive father out in the middle of nowhere in Illinois.  His family was very poor and when he was about 12 his mom left his dad and remarried another not so nice guy who they adopter six black kids together.  My dad worked very hard throughout his life to now be a highly paid electrical engineer on Vandenberg Airforce Base.  He is a great dad to me and my brother and sisters and a great husband of 25 years to my mom despite the kinds of men he grew up with.
