who have inspired me with

I would like to thank Denene Millner, who had the daunt-
ing task of taking my words and my sometimes unique phrases, 
putting them on paper, and making them readable by people in 
the human race. In other words I used her as a translator and

allowed me to sit down and think beyond my current circum-
stance. Her cheerful spirit has made me a more cheerful person 
and that has allowed me to be far more sharing than I’ve ever 
been.
And to my heavenly Father who has created every blessing 
I have ever known in my lifetime, I give him all the glory the 
honor and the praise.
