Gerry Campbell: In memory of my twin sister Karen Marie Campbell who was taken from us aged 16 years. A life tragically cut short and denied the opportunity to enjoy, experience life to the full and fulfil her dreams. Also, in memory of my mum, Catherine Campbell 1929–2011; a loving, hardworking and formidable mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who sacrificed, supported and gave up so much, for so many. Much loved and ever present. Karl A. Roberts: To my wonderful children, Henry and Matilda, and my fantastic wife, Vicki, each of you makes my life a loving and fantastic journey. And in loving memory of my mum, Jean Roberts 1939–2018, a life well lived. We will always remember and look for you in rainbows. Neelam Sarkaria: This book is dedicated to my wonderful family and amazing, inspirational mother Bimla Wanti Kapoor who has continued to encourage me to achieve my dreams.
