My dad is my hero.
The world has many heroes who have won a world of fame, heroes who have given their all to win in life’s great game.
But of all the famous heroes that our changing world has had, there’s not a one I look up to or admire more than my dad.
To me, my dad’s a hero, though he’d turn away from praise.
He’s heroic in his quiet strength and his gentle, giving ways he may not make the headlines.
You won’t see him on TV. But I think my dad is everything a hero ought to be.
He always keeps his promises, on that I can depend.
He’s loyal to me, no matter what and he’ll always be my friend.
So when I think of heroes and the great things that they’ve done, I feel the way that I’ve always felt, my dad’s the greatest one.
Survived by two daughters, one son and their spouses, Rosanne and Ronald Kulow, Price; Sarie and Dan Guy, Carbonville; Sam Jr. and Diann Martino, Price; sister, Florence Jernigan, and brother, Jay Martino, both of Price; seven loving grandchildren and 12 and one-half great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by parents; wife, Mary, who passed away Sept. 10, 1997; brothers, Pete, Joe, Jim; and sister, Rose Stafford.
