Things I love and appreciate about my dad: He always has a sense of humor. Although he would never make light of my pain he would joke with me in the hospital or when I was I was freaking out and I would always end up laughing He is able to put things in perspective and understand some things are not the end of the world He sticks to his values and principles In my opinion, my dad is a hero. He was a police officer in a difficult climate. We owe our safety to police officers
