Father Figures: Our Hero

“This man is my hero. He is my son Henry’s hero. He is my husband and he is a Philadelphia Police Officer.
Every day as he leaves to go and selflessly protect others he gives me a kiss and he promises me he will come home at the end of his shift. He is passionate about living out his life to protect and to serve and to have strangers become friends.
As parents to Henry and our future daughter – who will arrive in July – we strive to teach Henry about what it looks like to respect other cultures, to not see color, age, religion, or gender as something that separates us, but to, above all else, love others no matter what makes us different from another.”
