      Special thanks to my friends and family. Thanks to my local writing group for helping me hone my craft. Special thanks to Dr. Rita Carey, who helped me to find my voice. Thanks to Randy and DiAnne for their continued involvement in my career.

      I’d especially like to extend a special thanks to those of you reading this book. Without your support, stories like these would not see the light of day.

      Thank you.
