I dedicate this book to my loving dad who sadly passed away last year. Growing up, my father taught me many valuable lessons, specifically: to be kind to everyone, always learn from my mistakes, and to never give up.

Danny

To my father whom I love and adore greatly. You provided me with the inspiration and encouragement to follow my dreams and stop at nothing until I achieved them.

For my kids and teachers: London, Bella, and Willow.
