Dedications

I want to dedicate this book to my family for their ever-faithful support and understanding during the many nights

and weekends I spent writing. An extra special thank you goes to my wife Rose, daughter Rebekah, and son Daniel

who never voiced anything but encouragement and support.

Without the support of my family and their faith in me I would never have been able to completely rewrite this

book.

I had my faith in the Lord and the knowledge that my family knew I could improve upon my book in this new edition

to keep me going.

I want to reafﬁrm a few words of special meaning to my wife and I who have been married for over 15 years…

Always

Forever

Endlessly

Until Eternity

Acknowledgments

I am very grateful to the group of talented people that were assembled to make this book a reality. Through their

knowledge, dedication, and hard work, this book has become more than I ever thought possible.

The most important acknowledgment must go to my wife, Rose, who put up with me writing all night after working

all day. Her unwavering support was the single greatest factor in my ability to complete the book you now hold in

your hands.

Writing this book allowed me to assemble a team of technical professionals who have helped me make this book

more than I thought possible. I had the privilege to be a part of an awesome team during this time. Thank you all for

your insight and friendship.

I have to recognize the extraordinary group of publishing professionals who helped guide me through the process:

Amy Moss, a true and dear friend of many years now; and Chris Cleveland who is always busy but always has time

to help me.
