Honorable Mentions~ I would personally like to first and foremost thank my Mother, Linda Dalton, for taking the time to let me interview her in 2011. She had hopes of becoming a children's author but passed at the beginning of this year. It's my wish and gift to her that some day soon I will be able to indie publish her book. I love you from the depth of my soul and miss you every day, keep dancing until I get there!
