The plan was to lead and make things happen...when all along I just needed to have faith and follow.

To my great friend Nicholas P. Smith... Father Nick, “Himself”. He is truly a saint on earth who has inspired me every day of my life.

And speaking of Earth, I could not have found some- one more professional and kind and honorable to help me throughout this journey.

Honor and reverence is given to my editor Stuart “Bookie” Horwitz who picked up where we left off as if we were old, childhood friends.

And Cary Plocher, the friendly editor, who with a personal investment has once again gone well beyond my greatest expectations.

Thank you, Mom and Dad, for believing in me.

Mrs...we did it.
