Real life HERO


Undoubtly you have all heard of James Kim and family who became stranded shortly after they left family in Oregon to return home. If you haven't then breifly they got stuck in a snow storm after taking a poorly marked road and after a week of waiting James decided, in the interest of his family go in search of help. This was likely one of the toughest decisions this family had to make and it ended in tragedy. However, putting away all the what if', would could have been's, why didn't they's, etc... I would like you to take a moment and think about what this man did. What James Kim did was heroic. Not all hero's get nighttime stories written about them, but I can guarentee that Mrs. Kim will be telling her kids about a brave knight, one in shining armour that traveled the world and set out to rescue a damsel and her kids.
No, there is no "happily ever after" for this story, only fond memories and love for their HERO, now gone.
James Kim is what the world is in search of, what NBC makes monday night series about, what civilization needs more of...a hero.
James- We didn't know you, but we miss you. Rest in Peace.
