      Dedication

      True friendship is a priceless treasure. For many, many years my wife and I have been abundantly blessed with the tremendously good fortune of knowing our dearest friends, Tic and Terrie Long. Together the four of us have shared dreams and heartaches, laughs and tears, adventures and mishaps, and triumphs and struggles. May God in his grace fill the rest of our days with many more moments together resulting in an even deeper friendship.
