Living Heros #4
Sabina Leveque

Sabina is kind, persistent, smart, and artsy. I very much hope to someday be very much like her. Sabina was born in Ann Arbor, MI on January 16, 2008. I was right there in the waiting room with my Grandma as she came into the world. By the time she was eight months old, we had moved to Mercer Island. She immeiatley took a liking to art. At school, at home, in the car, she was always doing art. Her pictures plastered the walls of our home, and my parents work. She started going to school, and loved it. We got a new Nanny around that time, Maritza, and she was very kind to her. She always got good grades in school, and kept at it. She started going to Northwood elementery starting in 3rd grade. By then, she already was great in piano, art, and school. She is now going into 4th grade at Northwood elemetery. She keeps going, even when times are hard. I hope to be very much like her.

J.C. Leveque

My dad is a great leader, inspiring doctor, and amazing at biking. He is also persitent, hard-working, and smart. My dad went to school in Washington, D.C., and was very good at it. He graduated collage only to go back to school a few years later to get his medical degree. During this time, he married my mom, Thellea, and moved to Michigan. He did a lot of schoolwork and a lot of school. He started out being an average Neroseurgon, but he immidiatley got great at it. All his years of schoolwork had paid off. He later had two kids, me, and my sister Sabina. About 3 years later, he moved from Ann Arbor, MI, to Seattle, WA. A few years after that, he started biking. When I was 9 years old, he did the Seattle to Portland bike ride for the first time. He was going to bike the two hundred miles in two days, but he pushed through, and did it in one day for his first time. He has been doing that yearly since I was nine. This shows how hardworking and persistent he is. About a year after he did the STP for the first time, he was recocnized one of Seattle's top doctors. This shows that he never gives up. Around that time, he pulled me into his biking. I immediately got the hang of it. This most recent year, in July, i did the STP along side him. The fact that i was able to do it demonstrated his leadership abilities. At this moment, he is still considered one of Seattle's top doctors, and is still going strong. I very much hope to one day, be very much like him.

On Dixie Noble

My grandma Dixie Noble, is a kind, intellegent, persistient woman. She grew up in a less fortunate family. The family had less money, and her father was very hard on her. Dixie Noble grew up in a small town in Texas called Maybank, with one brother and three sisters. She started out not liking school very much, because she had teachers that demanded a lot of things from her and she was very overwhelmed at the time. Overcoming that, she left for collage at age at her early 20s. She had a very hard time at collage for a veriety of reasons. For one, she had just had a kid, so she had to work on her job as an fine artist, and at the same time, care for a kid by herself. (The husbands were not expected to help with the child at that time in history.) Because she had a hard time learning, and for the veriety of reasons I have already told you, it took her 10 years to get her undergraduates degree. Then, in the 1980s, she went back to school to get her PHD. She had many barriers in her way to get her PHD, but she made it. This proves how persistent she is. She is now 81 years old and lives on Mercer Island. She is still very persistent in taking up her pottery hobby, which started way back in collage. She is very kind, lighthearted, and seems to bounce off whatever hits her. I someday hope to be very much like her.

Carl Pepple

Carl Pepple was born in the mid-1970s. He went to college, then became a scientist. Somewhere in there, he married Kathrine Pepple. He started doing martial arts and became a black belt in multiple versions of martial arts. He is testing for his black belt in one type of martial art in a few months, and it will be his third black belt or higher in three types of martial arts. He just recently had a baby, Vivian, and she looks up to me a lot. Carl is one of those people who you think looks very calm and peaceful, and he is. He knows how to make lots of things, and he is very good at it. His job is a scientist, and from what I heard he is very good at it. A few months back, he applied for the Mars mission through NASA, and he went through the first phase of testing. Although he didn't make it all the way to the Mars mission, it still takes a tremendous amount of courage to apply for something like that. Karl Pepple is very courageous, he knows many different martial arts, and he is a very good father. Someday I hope to be very much like him.

Mom

My Mom is very hardworking, intelligent, peaceful, and loving. She was born in California. She loved school from her first day. It might have been hard for her at times, but she pulled through. Her Mom, my Grandma, was very loving to her, and also very smart. There might have been times when she and her mom fought, but they always made up. Her mom got divorced from her Dad when she was three years old. She went to collage at Amherst along with my Dad. She first saw my Dad playing in a band named Rosemary Cain and liked him from the start. She graduated college, only to go back a few years later to go to medical school with my Dad in Ann Arbor, MI. They had a kid (Me) and then about two and a half years later, had my sister (Sabina). They moved to Mercer Island, WA when my sister was eight months old. My dad was a Neurosurgeon, and my Mom became a Ophthalmologist. My grandma (Her mom) moved to Mercer Island, WA a few years later. (A few years earlier her Mom had moved back to Texas). My mom is now a Ophthalmologist on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays, and is at home most of the time on the other days (She sometimes is still called in to work on the other days). She loves me and my sister, and she is a great Ophthalmologist. I very much hope to be like her one day.
