Nadine Biss of the Eastport Elementary School – you are my hero today. Your letter, “Anyone can be a hero,” in the Bangor Daily News on Feb. 6 shows you exhibit many of the traits: confidence, strength, smarts, patience and wisdom above all; exceptional for a fourth-grader.

With your letter, you blessed my life today, with the knowledge that American youth, so young, have such great perception as you. Bless you. Never lose the strength of your convictions.
