ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Dorothy Knowles, friend and owner
Celtic Myth and Moonlight

Totally aside from being a good friend for many years, in 2006 we began taking photographs of her shop for her website’s virtual tour page.  Two years later we took the leap to create her online shopping cart and, thanks to her, the initiative was suddenly there to learn website design.  I admit to being very proud of her shop’s website, both because of the praise she receives for it from her customers and because it features my photography and web design throughout.  But it’s an easy thing to be inspired creatively there because of all the exquisite merchandise.  Dorothy, thank you for having faith in my abilities, and for working with me over these years even when hit with stumbling blocks which frustrated us both – but which we eventually worked our way through. Most recently Celtic Myth and Moonlight provided me with the full version of Adobe Creative Suite CS-5 Web Premium, which will help exponentially. Please take a look at Celtic Myth and Moonlight's website at www.celticmythmoon.com/ and Facebook site at www.facebook.com/CelticMythMoon

Peter Mitchell, mentor
co-owner of Mitchell PC

Without Peter’s invaluable assistance and guidance I’d never have learned website design – and I’d most assuredly not have had the confidence to develop websites of my own, much less attempt to begin a business of my very own.  Peter, thank you for having the confidence in me, and for your patience with me through my many questions.

Warren Holohan, friend
Owner of Ink and Essence

This was my second website to work on, for his business Ink and Essence, and we’ve had to work through many difficulties with its development.  It’s been a real pleasure working with his outstanding Celtic shirt designs, endeavoring to create a website which does them justice. We have also developed another website for a local high school, SPX-Gear. Warren’s artistic talent and knowledge of graphic design has helped immensely, and his wisdom has helped me to steer a truer course.  Thank you, Warren, both for your friendship and knowing that we could do it! Please take a look at Ink and Essence's website at www.inknessence.net/.

Finley Dula, my brother

Early on, my brother provided me with an early version of software enabling me to manipulate the digital photographs I was taking, allowing me to create images to be proud of.  We’ve both been through some rough times over the last few years, but we’re still brothers…enough said.

Glenda Danilshenko, friend and neighbor
owner of The Reinholds Inn

Glenda has been a good neighbor over the years, and I've dined at her fine restaurant, The Reinholds Inn, many times. Recently I began assisting her with resolving some major website problems she was having, and have now completely re-done her website. Please take a look at The Reinholds Inn's website at www.reinholdsinn.net/.

Ken Hudson, friend and fellow Instructor
and HazMat Team member

Ken assisted me in the process of becoming established locally as a State Fire Academy instructor, to my appreciation. He is the owner of his own training business.

Please accept my apologies if I've left you off this list. Many people have contributed to my life and sadly some of those are no longer with us, most especially my mom. For all of you, I thank you!
