Stevland Hardaway Morris, born
May 13, 1950, known by his
stage name Stevie Wonder, is
an American singer-songwriter,
multi-instrumentalist, record
producer and activist. Blind
since shortly after birth, he
has recorded more than thirty
U.S. top ten hits and received
twenty-two Grammy Awards,
the most ever awarded to a male
solo artist.
When Stevie Wonder was four,
his mother left his father and
moved herself and her children
to Detroit. She changed her
name back to Lula Hardaway and
later changed her son's
surname to Morris, partly because
of relatives. Morris has
remained Stevie Wonder's legal
name ever since. He began
playing instruments at an early
age, including piano,
harmonica, drums and bass. During
childhood he was active
in his church choir.

Strongest Dad In The World (S500c)
From: Sports Illustrated, By Rick Reilly From: edapsmason 8/21/2006 |
 |
Hoyt's picture from
CBS4Boston.com |
Eighty-five times he's pushed
his disabled son, Rick, 26.2
miles in marathons. Eight times
he's not only pushed him
26.2 miles in a wheelchair but
also towed him 2.4 miles in
a dinghy while swimming and
pedaled him 112 miles in a seat
on the handlebars-all in the
same day.
Dick's also pulled him cross-country
skiing, taken him on
his back mountain climbing and
once hauled him across the
U.S. on a bike. Makes taking
your son bowling look a little
lame, right?
And what has Rick done for his
father? Not much-except save
his life.
This love story began in Winchester,
Mass., 43 years ago,
when Rick was strangled by the
umbilical cord during birth,
leaving him brain-damaged and
unable to control his limbs.
"He'll be a vegetable the rest
of his life;" Dick says
doctors told him and his wife,
Judy, when Rick was nine
months old. "Put him in an
institution."
But the Hoyts weren't buying
it. They noticed the way Rick's
eyes followed them around the
room. When Rick was 11 they
took him to the engineering
department at Tufts University
and asked if there was anything
to help the boy communicate.
"No way," Dick says he
was told. "There's nothing going on
in his brain."
"Tell him a joke," Dick countered.
They did. Rick laughed.
Turns out a lot was going on
in his brain.
Rigged up with a computer that
allowed him to control the
cursor by touching a switch
with the side of his head, Rick
was finally able to communicate.
First words? "Go Bruins!"
And after a high school classmate
was paralyzed in an accident
and the school organized a charity
run for him, Rick pecked
out, "Dad, I want to do that."
Yeah, right. How was Dick,
a self-described "porker" who
never ran more than a mile at
a time, going to push his son
five miles? Still, he
tried. "Then it was me who was handi-
capped," Dick says. "I was sore
for two weeks."
That day changed Rick's life.
"Dad," he typed, "when we were
running, it felt like I wasn't
disabled anymore!"
And that sentence changed Dick's
life. He became obsessed
with giving Rick that feeling
as often as he could. He got
into such hard-belly shape that
he and Rick were ready to
try the 1979 Boston Marathon.
"No way," Dick was told by a
race official. The Hoyts were
not quite a single runner, and
they weren't quite a wheel-
chair competitor. For
a few years Dick and Rick just
joined the massive field and
ran anyway, then they found
a way to get into the race officially:
In 1983 they ran
another marathon so fast they
made the qualifying time for
Boston the following year.
Then somebody said, "Hey, Dick,
why not a triathlon?"
How's a guy who never learned
to swim and hadn't ridden a
bike since he was six going
to haul his 110-pound kid
through a triathlon? Still,
Dick tried.
Now they've done 212 triathlons,
including four grueling
15-hour Ironmans in Hawaii.
It must be a buzzkill to be a
25-year-old stud getting passed
by an old guy towing a
grown man in a dinghy, don't
you think?
Hey, Dick, why not see how you'd
do on your own? "No way,"
he says. Dick does it
purely for "the awesome feeling" he
gets seeing Rick with a cantaloupe
smile as they run, swim
and ride together.
This year, at ages 65 and 43,
Dick and Rick finished their
24th Boston Marathon, in 5,083rd
place out of more than
20,000 starters. Their
best time'? Two hours, 40 minutes
in 1992--only 35 minutes off
the world record, which, in
case you don't keep track of
these things, happens to be
held by a guy who was not pushing
another man in a wheel-
chair at the time.
"No question about it," Rick
types. "My dad is the Father
of the Century."
And Dick got something else out
of all this too. Two years
ago he had a mild heart attack
during a race. Doctors
found that one of his arteries
was 95% clogged. "If you
hadn't been in such great shape,"
one doctor told him,
"you probably would've died
15 years ago." So, in a way,
Dick and Rick saved each other's
life.
Rick, who has his own apartment
(he gets home care) and
works in Boston, and Dick, retired
from the military and
living in Holland, Mass., always
find ways to be together.
They give speeches around the
country and compete in some
backbreaking race every weekend,
including this Father's
Day.
That night, Rick will buy his
dad dinner, but the thing
he really wants to give him
is a gift he can never buy.
"The thing I'd most like," Rick
types, "is that my dad
sit in the chair and I push
him once."
Here's the video....

Adam Bender Plays Baseball (S610d in Baseball)

Adam Bender, 8, is one of several

one of the toughest positions

Because of cancer, he had
his left leg amputated when
he was one. Adam doesn't use a
