This had been a blog post about the following story:

There’s Another Kind of Hero
  By Bill Lyon, Philadelphia Inquirer, 1979.

Oops – we published without permission so have removed it.


  • Love this. It was read as part of the program during my son’s high school year-end cross country banquet.

  • Glad you enjoyed, Chris! I think it is phenomenal. I went to HS in Philly and grew up reading Bill Lyons. My high school coach gave us a photocopy of it and I had always tried to find it online but was never able to!
