I dedicate this book to my
Mother, Velma Louise Pensoneau, Mrs. Lee Otis Jones, who is 94 in the year
2007. Her commitment to the care of my disabled daughter has allowed me to
develop strengths I did not know I had. There is no political motive as
far as I’m concerned. Our philosophies are as different as night and day
but I do respect her right to live her life as she sees fit to do. I
admire so much her having the strength to continue to fight to do right by
her family and children. Velma’s will to keep trying when all the odds
seem to be against her to me exemplifies courage and loyalty beyond what
is common. |
