My dad- For serving his country in the US Navy. But most of all because he has taught me to never allow myself to be taken advantage of or brought down. He has always shown pride in my accomplishments and made sure that I had what I needed to get by. He has been in a wheelchair for 27 years and I've never seen him give up. No matter how frustrated he gets or how much pain he may be in his sense of humor and perseverence shine through. For teaching me to love and to be strong I thank you dad. You are my world. Next, my husband and my father-in-law - because they have fought for their country - doing what a lot of people could never do. They have sacrified so much and I am proud to love and be loved by them.
