Cornell is a hero in his own way

Brad Cornell is all about helping others, and he gives an emphasized meaning to the common phrase “Service with a smile.”

In fact, as the executive director and CEO of Hope for Heroes Texas, headquartered in Boerne, Cornell’s motto is “Serving those who serve us.”

Accompanying that is his mission, which is stated on his organization’s website: “To enable a sense of personal accomplishment, empowerment and unity for our nation’s disabled heroes through exciting, fun activities and overall appreciation of the great outdoors.”
