Pay it forward... the organ-donor pay it forward comes to mind.

The Mailman as hero.

Firemen and police... "...And the heroes who died just doin' what they do?" (Allan Jackson, "where were you.")

My grandmother is my hero. Strong farmwives everywhere are my hero.... Farmers are my heroes. Including bovidae ;-)

The first prompt reminds me of reading about Nicholas Green, a seven year old boy killed on vacation when thieves mistook the family's car for one that would be carrying jewelry. Not only were seven people direct recipients of donations from him, but articles about his case have increase organ donation rates.

Poem

The mailman and police are in "The Tommyrocker." The farmwives are in "Crossing the Line." Those thumbnails are posted elsewhere in comments here.
