Special Thanks: We have been blessed by prayers and support and financial donations from family and friends along the way. Aunt Janice (digital camera); Grandpa and Grandma (for giving us cash instead of presents at Christmas even though it wasn't as much fun); the Simmons family; Lasting Life; Jim and Linda: Thank you for the extra encouragement. Thank you to Lori Jacobs for taking our dossier photos and to Lori Reneau for being our faithful notary over the years.
