Acknowledgments

I would like to thank HIM from whom all blessings flow.

I would like to thank all of my friends. Because of you, this is a dream turned into a reality.

I would like to thank my kids, Kiera, Zac Jr., Greg, Justin, and RaShaunda. I couldn’t ask for better young adults.

I would like to also thank LZ and Zavier, Jayden, Tyson, and now the diva, Khloe and baby Isaiah; Nina loves you more and more each day.

To Renesha, always good for a laugh or two.

To my Mattawoman family, I love you to death. Thanks for the push to get me moving and the “mini- meetings” in the conference room.

Shelia, you are like my mother and always there for a good laugh, dirty joke and a good cursing out when necessary.

To Cliff, thanks for all of the laughter in the “morning lounge”.

To Shirley, I love you girl. To my sister; although far in distance, still close to heart.

To my brother Mike, well, what is there to say? To my other children, Nu-Nu and Rico and Kelly I love you very much. To Yvonne Medley, thank you for sharing your writing group with me and encouraging me and congratulations on your new novel.

Ok people, Let me just say this: This is the work of an overly active imagination. Don’t call the police, and don’t overthink it. Just enjoy it and happy reading.
