Lerts's Dedication List

*A little piece of me, how I think, what & whom I think is important.*

To my parents Linda Russell & Phaisal Lertsmitivanta for bringing me into this world, raised me and taught me right from wrong. Always taking care of us through their own personal problems and battles. Whether we were right or wrong.

My sister, Laurie Herman whom was always there for me growing up. 

And our Dog Pooper whom was always there for us, teaching us the true meaning of Love, Friendship and Loyalty.

I would also like to include a dedication to those friends I will always remember, whom had a impact on my life, sometimes small and sometimes large.

I guess you never really know how you can impact someone and their life. I'm sure some of these people don't even know that they did have a profound impact upon my life in one way or another, becoming part of who I am! Who knows, some may not even remember me who I am, but that is ok as I'm a better person for having known them.

" Everyday happiness means getting up in the morning, and you can't wait to finish your breakfast. You can't wait to do your exercises. You can't wait to put on your clothes. You can't wait to get out and you can't wait to come home, because the soup is hot."

**To A Great Man Whom Still Teaches Us**

"War is a matter of vital importance to the state; a matter of life or death, the road either to survival or to ruin. Hence, it is imperative that it be studied thoroughly"
"He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot will be victorious"
