My hero is not the person who you seeing flying in the sky, but rather the everyday hero who is just being his amazing self. Boro Sucevic has rightfully earned the tittle of hero because of his achievements in soccer, his ability to run a company and his magnetic, inspiring personality.

Boro Sucevic is everything that you would expect in a hero and more. He is a naturally kind, understanding, friendly person. This obviously makes him likable and easy to talk to. In addition, Boro is hardworking and he never gives up on anything, no matter how difficult it is. He is very smart and knows how to get things done, which is good since he never turns down a challenge. He is also extremely supportive and encouraging as he wants everyone to succeed. Boro Sucevic has the personality of a very inspiring person, which he is.

I always knew that my dad was not an ordinary guy, but it took me a little while to realize that he was a hero. If I had to guess, I would say I figured it out this year as I became more of an adult and started to see the world for what it really is. As I learned how people really are, I saw my dad in a whole new light. Now, he is like the amazing person you only meet once in your lifetime.

Boro has so many accomplishments that it would be easier to sit and watch Titanic from start to finish than to name them all. However, the important ones are worth mentioning. Like a movie director taking the actors to the Oscars, Boro has led many soccer teams to victory. Today, he runs Elm Grove Soccer Club, but in 2002 the Milwaukee Rampage were champions because of Boro's coaching. Boro is also the reason why so many people are successful today. Tony Sanneh for example, was in the World Cup because my dad was his coach and mentor. Boro also founded a successful company, Ogden Homes, after he stopped playing/coaching professional soccer. With this new company, Boro creates opportunities for everyone he can. In addition to all of this, Boro takes the time every day to help anyone and everyone with their troubles.

Boro lives his life by living every day to the fullest. He always makes the most of things and works hard. Boro Sucevic is a hero in my eyes because he puts others before himself and doesn't let anything get him down. To me, those are the most inspiring traits that anyone can have. If anyone deserves to be called a hero, it's my dad, Boro Sucevic.
