    My personal Michigan hero is my father. For this essay I chose my father because all my life I have looked up to him, even when I was too young to realize it, because my dad has guided me through life, teaching me valuable life lessons and will always be there for me and my family. My dad has changed so much in his life for my brother and I, spent hours for a day for years raising us to be the people we are today and I could never repay that. At a young age my father’s parents divorced, and he did not see his real father often because he was in the Coast Guard. He then vowed at a young age, and then to his future wife(my mother) that he would never divorce and do that if he had children.…

    What words come to mind when you think about your dad? Most people would say strong, emotionally and physically brave and confident. I know that is how I picture my dad, and that is how he thought of his dad also. However, I remember the day that my dad realized the cancer had stolen those qualities from his dad--the man that he had always looked up to.
