I wish to dedicate this book to two women
of great signifi cance in the story of my life:
To my mom, Biagina Lovano, because I don’t know
what I would do without her. She is always there for me
with her love, encouragement, and support, no matter what.
And to our very dearest friend, Avis Rawlings,
who was like a second mother to me for nearly forty
years and whom we deeply miss. We remember her
tremendous faith, determination, and optimism in our
dark times and draw strength from her example.
