Do you remember a favorite teacher who inspired you in school?
My journalism and drama teacher at Cheyenne Central High School, Barbara Bobbitt, inspired me to become the writer and broadcaster I am today, so I'd like to recognize her as one of Cheyenne's Hometown Heroes.
Pat served in the USAF for over 24 years and was in Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom. Starting his military career as an airplane mechanic, he switched to medicine, becoming a Physician Assistant.
