Dedication - Volume One

This work, not as a manuscript but as a passion, was begun by my mother's eldest sister, Grace Casebolt, known affectionately in the family as Grace Aunt. It is one of life's special cruelties that she, though at this writing living, may never know that this work exists or be able to appreciate what she inspired. Nevertheless, it is with boundless affection and respect that Casebolt -- An American Family is dedicated to Grace Alberta Casebolt by a grateful nephew.
