Some heroes wear capes. Some wear work gloves and safety glasses. Most just want to do a good deed for those in need, often because someone else once extended them a helping hand.
David Rose, an analyst in Entergy Mississippi’s economic development department, will tell you he’s no hero. Erica Jackson, a senior project manager at Entergy, may beg to differ.
Rose says he’s just a regular guy trying to teach his 10-year-old son, Alex, the importance of volunteering to help others and the value of a hard day’s work.
Jackson says they were a godsend after Hurricane Ida heavily damaged her family’s southeast Louisiana home. While she’s weathered many storms, Ida was the first to cause significant damage to her home. When she was finally able to return and begin cleaning up the debris, the Roses were there to help.
