Throughout the week, our ACC Team searches through emails and news articles looking for someone who deserves to be the Hero of the Week… Find out how you can nominate a Hero of the Week at the bottom of the page.
This week, we received an email from Kara Musser who wanted to nominate her father as ACC’s Hero of the Week. She writes:
Dear Kix,
My father has been a firefighter since he was 16 years old. He retired two years ago at the age of 48. But, he didn’t slow down… In April, he graduated with his paramedic diploma.
I am so proud of everything he’s accomplished and how he continues to serve his community. He has so much passion when it comes to helping others and he does it without fanfare or appreciation.
My children look up to him so much. My son even tells me that he wants to be just like his grandfather and that makes me so proud. He’s a hero to them and to me.
Signed,
Kara

Kix’s Response:
Thank you, Kara, for writing in… Your father sounds like an incredible man and the community is lucky to have him, and clearly, he’s a role model for his own grandchildren. What an example he’s setting just by the life he lives.
I am happy to recognize your father as our ACC Hero!
