Special
thanks and dedication to my parents: Andrew J. Robinson
(1918-1998) & Helen Robinson whose experiences
and values in life continue to fill me with inspiration
and gratitude that I had such amazing people as my
parents. Having had the benefit of their loving upbringing,
laughter, and values, they have helped to give me
my perspective on life & all of its difficulties
and creative possibilities. There can be no greater
gift than what they have given my in life. |
