What does that word mean to you guys ? My hero just died last night. My great-grandfather died. He was married 61 years to his high-school sweet heart,who is still alive and is now widowed.He broke his neck/wist in WWII. Ever seen the show "The Waltons" ? Well,the actor in the show,playing the role of the Sheriff is portraying(sp) him...Needless to say I'm a little broken up right now.

Sorry man, sounds like he was a great guy, and you seem to really appreciate the time you got to spend with him.

To answer your question, I personally feel a hero is someone you can count on to be there for you regardless of the situation. Someone you know won't back down from anything to help you. I was fortunate to have a grandpa who was my hero. Seems like the good ones are fewer and more far between these days.

Hero - A person that was there to help others. Being there for his family and friends.

Sorry to here about your grandpa. I hope you will think of the good times you have spent with him instead of the fact that he isn't here anymore.

hero = someone who help other people without thinking about him/her self first, who don't want anything in return for what he/she did for others. Sorry about your great grand father. You are still lucky that you know your great grand pa, I never had the chance to know my.
