    Perseverance

    By jesswarner  |  Posted November 4, 2012  |  Brentwood, Tennessee
     

    My dad, David Jordan, embodies the meaning of perseverance. He lost his wife and parents all within a year of one another and yet continues to persevere through all the negative things life tends to throw his way. I am so proud of the fact that my dad was an aerial photographer in the Air Force during the Vietnam era!

     

    Dad, thanks for being a shining example of what it means to be a true American hero.
