In memory of my nephew S.H.,
who wasn’t with us long but lives on in our hearts,
and Peggy Bird, a dear friend who I miss so much.
Thank you to Delle, Heather, Marilyn, and Peggy for your friendship and support, both during our weekly write-ins and away while I wrote the first version of this book. I also can’t forget Amy who played sounding board and helped me figure out this story one morning at Panera.
