I would like to offer special love and gratitude to my family in Rochester: my wife, Annie Laver, and my son, Bennie, for helping me navigate life's trials. Without their love and support, I would surely end up lost. I would never be able to be the person I am today without them at my side, and for that and so much more, I say simply, “I love you.” And for all the friends, family, and colleagues that I have callously left out, please be assured of my continued love and esteem. Finally, I would like to dedicate this book to Professor G. Cameron Hurst III, mentor, friend, and inspiration.
