A very deep and sincere Thank You! goes to the most important and influential person in my life right now: my Beloved Wife, Chantale. For everything you are, and everything you bring out in me, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'm sure you know that place very well since I've shared it all with you :) I Love You!
