My father - hands down!

He's been a wonderful father, husband, grandfather and all around great man! He could give lessons on how to be a great dad. He raises my nephew and is the main caregiver to my mom who's disabled. He 75 years old and has more energy than I'll ever have. He cooks, cleans, shops and does everything that's required of him. I feel very fortunate to have a dad like him.

Just be loving and supportive and most of all be there for your kids and their mother when they need you. If you take care of them and spend time with them, they will love and respect you for it. Don't over indulge them and make sure you try your best to know what's really going on in their lives.

I suppose you could call Andy Warhol, Bjork and Audrey Hepburn "heroes" of mine. But they're more people I admire than think of as a hero.

I tend to admire ppl and find inspiration from others that are usually regular everyday ppl rather than famous ppl.

I guess I have only had a few hero's in my lifetime...

My Grandfather Greigg for being a strong human being, kind gentle and caring. Sadly he passed away before I was old enough to have deep conversations. He was only 53 years old and I always wonder how different my moms life would have turned out if she had her dad around a bit longer to support her during the rough times.
