He best exemplified how a committed family man can still have the energy and time to run a powerful country without compromising time with his loved ones. Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt showed us the value of hard work, personal sacrifice, love for country, and commitment to mention a few. Teddy Roosevelt, however, pressed on and lived to raise six children thereafter. His presidency, time in government and even his personal family life were without challenges after having lost his wife and mother on the same day. This truth is especially clear in the life of Theodore “Teddy” Roosevelt, the 26th president of the United States of America who was best known as a conservationist. Life’s difficulties are often the things that teach us the greatest lessons of all.
