There is nobody that I directly "emulate", however there are a number of people that have taught me how to handle myself in various situations. There are people whose style I have taken bits from, but there isn't anybody who I can singularly point to and say I have modeled myself after "X".

Like others on this list I am very fond of both of my grandfathers but I don't think I strive to be like them. I do respect both of their work ethics and their determination to remain active despite being nearly 80 years old.
