个人简介

Michael T. Madigan dedicates this book to four individuals who depart-
ed this life in 2001. First, my mother Myrtle (February 28, 2001); she was a tov-
ing mother who raised a good family and encouraged me to go to college at a
rather critical stage in my upbringing. Second, Charles Maas (the Colonel)
(March 8, 2001), my best friend for over 35 years; oh how I wish you could
have enjoyed those retirement years that we dreamed about over a beer on
more than one occasion. Third, my father-in-law Bart Spear (June 29, 2001); a
man of so many talents who left behind so many good memories. And final-
ly, King, the wonder horse (November 9, 2001); his spirit and zest for life were
inspirational to everyone who knew him. I miss all of you guys a lot.
