I am a retired English teacher. I had a 4.0 accum in English in college (long ago).

Thank you for what you did, which was protect.
You are my hero, and for you I have great respect.

Write the title without quotation marks or underlining.

I'd say that the correct punctuation is:

"Thank you for what you did, which was protect.
You are my hero and for you I have great respect.

In otherwords a full stop after protect and no extra commas in the last line.

Comma's are in between two phrases that could be sentences.

Semi-colon after protect and a comma after you.
