These songs are dedicated to my grandparents, Edward and Faye Shepherd (Papa and Granny). They left us a great heritage. The legend is theirs to keep.
My husband, Josh, whose rugged toughness is matched only by his tender love and patience, made this work possible.
It was a labor of love initiated by my dad who saw the project through with his one part criticism, two parts encouragement.
I hope to pass the legacy of Papa and Granny on to my biggest fans, my boys Stone, Levi, Zack and Sammy J.
Mom, your creative input and design work added an extra dimension.
Thanks goes to Aunt Margaret who has always been there for me. And to my step-mom Tammy, whose patience extends to the end.
A special thanks goes to Michael and Debbie Pearl of www.nogreaterjoy.org for their influence on my life. You have no greater fan.
