ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

This work would not have been possible without the support of the maintenance and reliability professionals I have had the pleasure to work alongside over the past thirty-five years, particularly Bill Cole and Larry Wiskirchen. I am especially indebted to Steve Holmes, Duane Aldueso, and Robert Hansen who have shaped my career and who worked actively to provide me encouragement to pursue my goals.

I am grateful to all of those with whom I have had the pleasure to work with during this project. Each of the members of my publishing team has provided me extensive personal and professional guidance and taught me a great deal about turning my life’s practices into a volume. I would especially like to thank Judy Bass, the Editorial Director, Janice Gold, my copy editor, and Janet Romano-Murray, my cover and text designer. As my publishing team, you will be forever linked to my family. I would also like to thank my brother and sister, Lester and Tracy, and my sons, Joshua and Troy, for reviewing my work to ensure I am making sense and adding value to the body of work.

Nobody has been more important to me in the pursuit of this project than the members of my family. I would like to thank my parents; whose love and guidance are with me in whatever I pursue. They are the ultimate role models. Most importantly, I wish to thank my loving and supportive wife, Lisa, and my four wonderful children, Joshua, Stephanie, Troy, and Natalee, who provide unending inspiration.
