I would like to dedicate this book to my wife Barbara, because without her support this journey would not have been possible.
To our two daughters, Lynne and Lesley, who have made every step of the way home worthwhile. Our sons-in-law David and Damien and our four wonderful grandchildren Lily, Beth, Eoghan and Ruaridh.
We as a family have been blessed in so many ways.
