the entire city's interest, advice and participation... "
Sharpe continued "A special
note of thanks goes out to Lesa Holstine, our Book Topics editor who is
now back east and we miss her articles on the Arizona authors that she
covered."
Finally Sharpe wanted to
extend his thanks to other people in the newspaper, radio, television and
cable industry that have counseled him and provided an example of
technique and values. "I would be nothing without them"
