"Thanks
to my true-hearted wife
and manager Penny
Cahill for all of her devotion and love over our
over twenty years together. She has
been nothing but supportive and true and believed in me
always.
Lesser people would have given up
on me, but she's always been there, solid as a rock. Her hard
work and
dedication to
realizing our dream continually amazes me, I wouldn't have been here if
it
wasn't for Penny. I'm the luckiest man in the world.
Thank you,
thank
you, thank you Penny!"
