I was married in 1979, and after 30 years my husband, Mark, is not only my husband, but my best friend. Now that the boys are grown and out of the house, we are enjoying being together, traveling, and seeing places we weren't able to go while raising the kids.

Mark is responsible for planting the seed for the book as you will read in the introduction. Now he is by my side with encouragement as I promote it and the ideas within it. He has also planted a few seeds for some possible future publications. 

My three sons, Robert (Bob), Jonathan (Jon), and Thomas make me proud - everyday. 

Bob and Jon have their own business that has proven to be more successful than I could have imagined. After graduating college they developed Bay Area Molding & Doors. They provide finishing contractor services installing crown molding, baseboards, trim, and doors. Their retail store sells trim and doors to contractors and the public.

Tommy is in college now. His dream is to be a fire fighter and paramedic. Study hard kiddo.

I love you all.
