James Persyn III Should Be Proud
James III was given an award for his bravery and was ‘hailed as a hero.’ According to his dad, “We had never really thought about ‘hero.’ I just keep telling him how proud I was of him.” In the end, if it hadn’t been for James III willing to open the door upon hearing the victim screaming hysterically, then she may no longer be alive. Gratefully, the 14-year-old was courageous enough to swallow his fear and come to a woman’s aid in her greatest need.
