Ok, I can’t sing or dance and can only play a few chords. Safe to say I’m not putting out a cd anytime soon. So, here’s my version of liner notes to recognize all who have been supportive and instrumental in both my life and this venture.

In the deeply missed and beloved home state of Massachusetts (I shall return one day, don’t change the locks): The “T”, Tom & Janine, The Bink, Chico E. Guiles, Boomer & Kevin, Kelsea and Jenna B.

In Georgia: Beverly (who tolerates my need to tilt at windmills) and my precious little ladies, Lindsey and Morgan. I love you!!

Legendary Cleveland, Ohio, rock and roller, Michael Stanley, for his permission to reprint lyrics from “Since You’ve Been Gone” on the dedication page. This tune is featured on his cd “Live In Tangiers”. Check out his website: www.michaelstanley.com Thank you, Michael!

The Hadley (MA) Garden Center: Official retailers of the Wicked Awesome Gardener shirts. hgc@charter.net They have “everything you need to make your garden grow“.

Dick Dangalini and staff at the Jalona Sausage Company. “Our meats are your treats - since 1927”.

Wicked Awesome web site designer: Sheree Hill. She’s the best (at least, that’s what she told me when I hired her to do this). Thanks, Sheree!! www.digitalcreation.net flutter@digitalcreation.net

Wicked Awesome Legal Junk: Joan Dillon. Joan@joandillonlaw.com.

Wicked Awesome Bean Counter: Kevin of Granby. www.bma-cpas.com.

Wicked Awesome Ex-Neighbor: Judd “Hey, Now” Tice: Thanks for moving! Eagles suck!

Gone But Not Forgotten: Pat “Mr. C.” Crowley, a true Mainer, who made it tolerable to sit through four hour gymnastics meets. We miss you!

In memory of my two best friends:
Mom (June 2, 1927 - February 23, 2004)
Dino D. Dog, beloved beagle, (February 1992 - March 1, 2004)
