God (i've tried simplifying the G-O-D into one sentence and those of you who know me...this will take some time). My Family who raised me and downloaded amazing strength. My Bestest Friends who make me laugh and can make a dead park into a playground. Marlyne Afflack who helped me change my life and re-ignite the fire, Pippi Longstocking who had red hair and owned her unique personality, Patricia Paige who demanded discipline, authority and excellance, Suzanne Pomerantzeff who kept pushing my creative buttons, and Carolee Young who inspired me to dance with my heart.
