My father is my hero for many different reasons. He is the strong, powerful figure in my life. There is nothing my father can not do as far as I am concerned.

I�ve seen my father do many things from restoring cars to building houses. He is what you call a �jack of all trades,� but that is not the most important reason my dad is my hero.

The most important reason I love my father so much is because he�s always been strong, hard working, and a very, very good provider. There�s never been a bad time growing up with my dad.

I thank God every night for letting him be my dad and passing on to me all of his qualities.
