, To my Dad,
Angelo J. lannucci
Thank you for making me the writer that I am today ---
without the lannucci “writing & editing gene” (inherited from you),
this book would not be possible.
Thank you for always being there for me ---
for being my biggest fan, for making me laugh,
and, for always being the voice of reason.
Thank you for teaching me life’s lessons ---
for showing me how to be independent,
and, for giving me wings to y.
Thank you Dad,
for everything.
