In a house in Fillmore, California, somebody's hero wakes with the morning alarm.
Somebody's hero dresses in his uniform: olive green trousers, beige button-down complete with a bulletproof vest, a Ventura County emblem on his left shoulder.
Somebody's hero pins the county sheriff's star to his chest opposite his nameplate.
Somebody's hero says goodbye to his family: a wife, two sons, and a first-born daughter, and drives off to a new day in a Ventura County Sheriff's Department patrol car.
For over 15 years, Cielo Meza loaned her hero, her Dad, Rafael, to Ventura County to be somebody's hero.
