Kindness Hero Essay by Samantha Sinclair

I believe that my dear friend Sid Warner is a wonderful kindness hero. He was born in Canada in 1927, and is 86 years old now. He was raised to be smart and tough. He would always entertain himself by helping, because he did not have many toys. He was always helping in hard times, and still kept decent grades. He was becoming a strong young man. Even though he was young, he would still help and care for people.

At a young age he joined the Air Force in Canada. His job was on a fighter jet as a tail gunner. The tail gunner is someone who is in the end of the jet shooting at other planes and things while in war. After serving in the Air Force for a LONG time he retired. He then met his wife Marge. They together moved to Castro Valley, Ca. After a few years they had three kids. They're names were David, Steve and Lynne. Later Marge was diagnosed with cancer. Sadly Marge died only when the kids were about 10 years old. He still raised AMAZING kids and now they are great adults. He was always taking care of his obligations and dedicates his time to help.

Not too long ago he met my grandma. Ten about 10 years later I came along. Hes always helping me when I need help or someone else. Now, still at age 86 is still a workaholic. He had heart surgery to help him out. He is a little sad because he cannot do the things he used to be able to do, but he is still doing awesome.

Sid Warner as a kindness hero each year, because he is an amazing man and will never stop giving help.
