Personal People We admire

I admire my grandfather because he is survivor of a hard time with bad conditions.

He provided for his family even when he had to work hard all night and day, and he never said a word. He cared about his children's education, and he was the only working man in the home, after my uncle's birth he told my grandmother to stop working and started to spend more time with the kids, and he would provide for the family.

He is a very brave man, he was in the Palmach (the army that our country had before it turned into a state.), and he saved other people's life. I remember that once we looked at pictures in his house, and he showed me a picture, and he told me that he was photographed with Ariel Sharon (our prime minister now) after he saved his life.

My grandfather is very active and he goes on a lot of trips even though he is 76 years old. He is swims, plays with his grandchildren and he has us as family guests every Saturday.

He has overcome many problems like his knees. He had a lot of surgeries because of his knees. Now they are very healthy. His lungs were hurt and he couldn't talk, but he got over it. He even drives a car at his age.

He is a smart guy too, and he has a lot of qualifications, he is like a superman, he does a lot of things together and he is still doing them all excellently.
Concisely, I love him very much.
