Randy Maxwell Character Analysis

Randy Maxwell, Better Known as a Father, and also a Husband My father, Randy is one of the most substantial people within my life. He grew up within a very incompatible household. But even though he has come from a harsh past he has always been the father along with the husband of our family’s dreams even though his childhood was so cruel. He has always strived to become a better and more patient and understanding parent and husband than his parents ever were. My father grew up on the streets of downtown Davenport. He often had to feed himself throughout his childhood due to his mother’s poor choices.
