Year: 2006
Type: dissertation
Abstract: First and foremost, I thank God, my creator, sustainer, and lifeline. To my husband, Isaiah Lamar Patterson, your love and patience are unsurpassed. You are my best friend. To my children: Isaiah Malik, Kayla Renee’, Destiny Marie and Jacqueline Annette, who waited patiently for this day; while I cannot repay the time that I “borrowed ” from you to complete this task, I can promise you that you were always first and that I love you all beyond compare. To my sisters: Jarens Banks, Samantha Lewis and Cindy Jennings, your constant vigil gave me strength, courage and serenity—I love you. To my father, Rev. Dr. Samuel Joseph Murray, you inspire me. Always have and always will. Thank you for the practical guidance as well as the loving example of your own success.
