Sorry, I can’t limit it to one, because there were two.
My mother died when I was ten years old, and my grandmother took over the feminine aspect of raising me and my brothers and sisters. She cooked and cleaned and mended, and it was just expected at the time. She was not always the easiest person to live with, but looking back on it, I certainly could not be the person I am today without her.
The other nurturing person in my life has been my wife. Again, not the easiest person to live with, but VERY motivating, got me through college and law school, even though she was in school at the time as well. And now, thirty years later, still a great source of motivation, she gleefully spends every penny we both make.
