A Hero's Welcome

Our hero was welcomed homed. I remember the first year dad became a firefighter in Akron. I was so proud yet so scared. The thought of him out there putting his life on the line for others was so tough back then. Now I know it was a true honor for him to do what he did. We are so proud of you daddy!!
