We’re always on the lookout for a special person or organization to recognize as our Kidde Hero of the Week, and Christine sent us this special email about her hero. She writes:
Dear Kix,
The hero I would like to give thanks to is the man that I can Pa. He has been in my life for 20 years now, and he was a father to me when he did not have to. He picked me up and encouraged me through the hard times and always treated me as his own.
My Pa is a man who gives his best to make you smile and would happily give the shirt off his back to help another. He is a strong, loving, and a caring man that has made me who I am today. He truly is my hero.
Thanks!
Signed,
Christine

Kix’s Response:
Well, thank you, Christine. I realize that kids don’t always have the parents they need to get started on a healthy path, and for all of you out there who have stepped up to help – thanks!
