We wish to express our gratitude to the Rebbe, our parents and family, teachers, friends and study partners.
They have either shared these stories and lessons with us, or helped us develop the capacity to search out lessons on our own and share their meaning with others.
Special thanks to: Tzvi Burston for contributing the majority of the typing. To Moshe Muchnik, of Spotlight Design, for the cover design. To Rabbi Mendel Lifshitz for the glossary.
