In Loving Memory


This book was finished as a final tribute to my late husband, John McConnell.
I hope these words keep his ideas alive in the industry a little longer.


Grace Morlock McConnell




My perception of my very special son, John W. McConnell


All that we can be, we must be.
Find a star and never settle for less.
John was born to be one of a kind.
Making his way with a mind of his own,
and making a difference and making it known.
He had his dreams and hopes to pursue.


by his mother, Jeanette McConnell

Dedication

This book is dedicated to my wife, Grace, whose support has been so helpful in carving out the time and quiet needed for this project. My friends and Grace have also provided a supportive environment and tolerated my frequent absences to work with clients. Returning home to a warm community has been really important to me.
