First I would like to say that I could never thank everyone that I would like to. How would I thank everyone who I have ever known? Be it big or small, they have all helped me be me. That said, my apologies to any I have neglected. I wish to offer my heartfelt thank you to the following:

First and foremost Our Divine Creator for making all of this possible. Others, in no particular order, my wonderful mother, for giving me life and for being both dad and mom. We were three kids and one income and never can I remember not being fed, clothed, housed or loved. A truly amazing task.

My lovely wife Marie, who married a very different man many years ago. Thank you for putting up with me and allowing me the room to grow over the years, you have no idea what a gift that room is.

My angel of a daughter, Tara, I similarly thank you for supporting my growth and for giving me back a part of my youth. You will never know how much you have influenced my life. I am honored to be your dad.

For lack of what I feel to be a better term to describe a person to whom one was married, as I do not like the term “ex” or “former”, for they are too past tense, love never dies. I will simply say to Tara’s mom, Maureen, thank you so much for all your love and support, you are a gift from the heavens.

Thanks to my sister, Maria for introducing me to Neale Donald Walsch’s A Conversation with God series, that one simple thing, changed everything, Bless You!

Thanks to my big brother, Lou, for giving me a male figure to look up to when I was a wee one. I love you much.

A big thank you to Reverend Audra Carson, who got me through my ordination process, you are such an angel.

I will quickly list some, but not all others. Although they don’t know me directly, they have had a profound affect on my life. Well, actually, they do kind of know me, for we are all one. Ok, Ok, on with it! Oprah Winfrey, Martin Luther King, Jr., Neale Donald Walsch, Eckhart Tolle, Gary Zukav, Debbie Ford, Byron Katie, Deepak Chopra.

This list could go on for quite a while, so I will end it with a final note of thanks to you for stopping by. Thanks…….
