From Rick
Creating a book is a laborious process. To make it through the long haul, you need the support of many of those people mentioned earlier. Even more importantly, you need the help of those closest to you. For me, that would be the rest of my immediate family—LuAnn, Elinor, and Josephine Greenwald. LuAnn has given me a life full of happiness. Ellie and Josie can’t even spell Oracle (and wonder why their daddy can’t play with them more), but they are the reason for virtually everything I do.
Throughout this long process, I have been able to keep plugging along. This project has made me understand and value the work ethic that is deeply a part of me. For this, I can only thank my father, who passed away during the writing of the book. Thank you, Dad.
