Owen Danzuka (13), "I look up
to my dad as a hero because he's
always there for me. He takes me
fishing, hunting, to the movies and
he also plays baseball and bas
ketball with me."
Myrtle Suppah (11), "It has to be
my grandparents, because I love them
and they buy me stuff and they're
there for me."
Julian Wallulatum (10), "Angie,
is the hero in my life. Angie is the one
who cared for me and took me out of
the group home and let me come stay
with her. Angie is nice to me and
does fun stuff with me. I plan on
having a nice Thanksgiving and
Christmas staying with my hero
Angie."
Vennesa James (10), "The hero
in my life is my mom because she

Kayleen Clements (13), "Yes, I
look up to my dad because he's so
out spoken and always knows what
to say, when to say it, who to say it to,
and he's not afraid to speak up to
anyone when he knows he's right.
My dad is an all-around dad, he's
funny, dorky, understanding and he's
always there when I need him.
My dad taught me everything I
know about how to play basketball.
He used to take me fishing, but I
don't like it any more. Dad also takes
us to the movies and to other activi
ties. I could go on-and-on about my
dad, but the list will get too big."
Gary Villa (12), "The people I
look up to as my hero's are my par
ents. My parents are the one's who
brought me into these world and
taught me everything they knew. I
feel that at my young age, I've done
much more then what my parents
have ever done when they were
growing up. I look up to my mom and
dad as hero's for always being there
for me w hen I need them."
Desrai Wells (1 l),"Yeah, it's my
aunt Marty because she involves me
and my brother in activities like
basketball, movies, ice skating stuff
like that. I look up to her and enjoy
being around her."
Aaron Main (1 1),"I guess I would
have to say my grandfather because
he has been a police officer and has
served in the Army. I would like for
him to take me fishing and hunting
someday."
