There are people who have supported me all my life. Without them, this book would not exist and the world would have been a sadder and lonelier place. So thank you Walter Atkinson, Ken Shields, Ron Templeton and the perfectlynamed Molly Loving. And In Memoriam: Mother, Daddy and Julia. Daniel Joslin, Ron Sullivan, Fred White and Tom Lilly. And there were those wonderful people who supported me while I was writing the book. Thank you Mark Drolette, John Schupay, Lee Johnson, Marie Kiene and Kathy Halstead. And Rick, you inspire me every day.
