ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I t would not have been possible to complete this book had it not been so many people in my life who were generous with concern, love and support for me. I give special thanks to the ones who embraced, encouraged, and shared so much knowledge and expertise with me, especially my teachers, my pastors and the elders of my community.

I am expressly appreciative to my family for their loving support. You are remarkable people and I cannot begin to list all of your wonderful deeds you did for me. To my parents, I am eternally grateful for the life skills I acquired from you. You were the best. I applaud my soul mate for being my best friend and his physical strength that assisted us to combat the struggles we had to undertake. Extreme appreciation goes out to my children and all of my legacies for the time you shared with me. I could always depend on you. Even though there were many obstacles in my life’s pathway, you always had my back. I love you and am so proud of each of you.

Additionally, I am very much obliged to Xlibris Publishing Company for the assistance and support rendered in the development of this book.

Finally, I thank God for leading me through seen and unseen dangers. You gave me the strength to keep me from yielding to adversities that came my way.

For this dear God, I thank you. Rosie Lee
