I dedicate this book to my father and mother. Without them I would not have become the person I am. I was born in 1938 to a wonderful set of parents; my mother and father were people who gave of themselves. They instilled so many virtues in me that I am very thankful for. To my family who had to put up with me through the good times and the bad. To everyone that I have met along the way while I was following my life’s path. And most of all to God, whose help has given me the desire for knowledge and the courage to follow my heart. Without that, I would not have accomplished the things I’ve done.
