Author’s Note
This book has been written from my memory of events in my life. Although I’m amazed at my recall, there were times when I could not remember exact conversations and times of events. In these instances, I have improvised to move the story along. I have strong opinions of some of the people in this book which I do not hesitate to state. They are my own personal convictions which I believe I have a right to express.
There are few, but some of the names in this book have been changed to protect the innocent . . . as well as the guilty.
