Don't have any heros. I admire a few people, but no heros.

You fixed it.
OK, this is easier. I admire my Father, but probably my deceased Grandmother most. |

Richard Feynman. He influences how I approach my job everyday.
My old man. Without his encouragement, I probably wouldn't be doing science. Terry Ingram. He was a critical adviser to me in my youth, and sadly I'm watching him slip into dementia. There are many more, but those are a few. |
