This is my story in my own words. The characters are real people, but fictitious names were used for some of the characters out of respect for their privacy. The locations mentioned still exist in many instances, and I have visited them as recently as 1999.

I am sure you will enjoy reading the story of my life as much as I enjoyed writing about it.

The telling of this story truly is a labor of love by every person who helped me with it.
