I have been fortunate to be able to look close to home to find a hero. My dad came from a family in which no one had gotten past the 6th grade. He joined the Air Force to get an education, and two doctorates later he retired. He is the most honest person I know. I am grateful to him because he made it possible for me to pursue a dream (a musical career) instead of having to pursue necessities in life.
There aren't a lot of modern celebrities that I think are role models for me. People from the past stand out though...
