Where do we begin to thank all the people God has used in our
lives -- especially those He has used to help the Coming Home Network
International become what it is? How do we thank all those who
have helped this book and its revised versions come to fruition?
I can only mention a few, but for all the rest who have been so
caring and faithful, may God bless you for your loving friendship
and encouragement.
First, a thank you to my parents, Daniel (RIP) and Dorothy Grodi,
who not only nurtured me with their love and discipline, but also
have put up with my wandering and too-often-unsettling spiritual
journey.
