To Suzanne Fitzgerald Wallis,
the woman who knows better than all others
how to dispense magic, love, and inspiration
To Herbert Wallis,
a man who wisely experienced the sadness and
bittersweet glory of the Depression, a man who
encouraged, aroused, and breathed life into his son
so that the story could, at last, be told
To all lost boys and absent sons,
in hope they may be found
