First of all I’d like to thank the Lord Jesus Christ for blessing me with the gift of being able to bring my words to the world. Without him there would be no me.
To Eula and Jewell Johnson, my grandparents, rest in peace. Ya’ll are a part of me and my thoughts. I honor, miss and respect ya’ll. I truly can now say I got it right Momma. I know ya’ll are watching over me. I miss ya’ll.
To my pops, Allan White, I can never find the words to convey the admiration and respect I have for you. Know that I recognize the sacrifices you made for me, never will I forget you coming to get us when we were in a bad situation; I know you didn’t have to take me with but you did. Or the time you risked your life and freedom standing up for me, I love you Pops, always and forever.
To my sisters, Shareka and Sue Dortch, I love ya’ll and treasure all the time we spent together.
To my Grandma White, you’re truly a Queen who deserves nothing less than the best. I love you.
To a true friend, Vanessa Wilson. I truly value your unconditional friendship; you always said if I applied myself I could do anything I wanted. Friendships like ours are truly rare and hard to find.
C.C. my baby girl, I love you with all my heart. You’ve remained my #1 supporter through it all. Uncle Derrick will always be there for you.
As always, a special thanks to my cover and interior designer, Keith Saunders from Marion Designs. There’s no other who can compare to your designs. Also my editors, Sheila Johnson and Jason Burford.
And to my Mother, Vivian S. White; if they had a male version of you, I’m it. We’ve both been through it all and have overcome whatever obstacle we encounter…..we go hard baby. You gave life to a bonafide Goon. Although I no longer choose to run the streets, I will never forget where we came from, Galesburg baby!
