My Hero

H ow does he balance life and what the Bible teaches? E vidently by practising all that he preaches. I mpacting lives by his words and deeds, S erving God first, above his own needs. M odel he is, for other men to follow, Y eah, a true Jack of all trades, you know. H umble and loving, though a strict stickler to rules, E xperienced, wise and quite an expert with tools, R eal fun to be with, time with him makes me glad, O f course, he's my hero and none other than my dad. 11/26/17

oh HOW sweet the ending is. So nice, Jo!! I could not think of any man in my life to write as a hero. Maybe my stepbrother was one (who died ages ago)

I wish everybody could offer a tribute such as this one to their father, Jo, but unfortunately not all parents live up to their name. I'm glad you have a 'real' dad for a hero! Regards // paul
