This week, one of our listeners Reyes Falcon, from Texas, writes in:
Dear Kix,
I want to nominate my kid sister Rosanna. Our mother passed away last year. I messed up and was away in prison for 21 years. My sister helped my mom and stepdad while working and raising her own family.
When my stepdad had a stroke, she was there tirelessly. And, when he passed away, she was our mom’s rock. When our mom was in the hospital, my sister was there beside her. When she passed away, my sister stepped up and took care of everything.
Even though I’m the older one, my kid sister took care of things. She is now and will always be my hero.
Thanks, Kix.
Signed,
Reyes, a Texas Fan!!!!

Kix’s Response:
Well, Reyes, it definitely takes a village, especially a family to help ease the load when we can’t always be there. Rosanna, we honor you as our Hero of the Week!
