       Personal Acknowledgments

      I’m so pleased and happy to tell you about these incredible people who helped make this book possible.

      To Bert Ghezzi: Thank you, exceptional editor, for giving structure to another best seller and for allowing me the freedom to be as creative as possible.

      To Bill Dodds: My extraordinary and special copy editor, who always make my books more powerful, warm, and eloquent. Thank you for helping readers of this book better see conversion through the eyes of kindness and compassion.

      To Father Dan Cambra, M.I.C.: I can’t thank you enough for telling me no one had written about St. Faustina’s Diary while looking through the lens of conversion! What a glorious sight it is to see her beautiful words come into focus that way. Thanks to you, I can share them with others. Her message of God’s mercy continues to reach hearts, minds, and souls around the world because of what you do.

      To my former editor and still dear friend, Jackie Lindsey: This is our tenth book together, and none of them could have happened without you!

      To Steven Jay Gross: There will never be enough words in this world or the next to describe you or to thank you. You are the greatest blessing in my life. I became “The Purgatory Lady” because of you, my dear, dear friend, and I thank God for you daily.

      To Deacon Mike McCloskey: I can’t even begin to tell you how helpful you’ve been. I hope you know I’m deeply grateful — and so fortunate! — to have you as a friend.

      To Larry Lesof: You’re always there for me, dear friend. Always helpful. Always faithful. My eternal thanks.

      To Mike Wick: Many authors have a “go-to-guy.” You’re my “go-to-guy extraordinaire”!

      To George Foster: Thank you for going over my manuscripts with such amazing attention to so many, many details!

      To Loyola University Chicago librarians Yolande Wersching and Vanessa Crouther: And yet again, your assistance was outstanding! And so appreciated.

      To Maria Cristina Ramis and Kathryn Owens: I’m sure no other author has a better resource than you two for tracking down just the resources my books need! Thank you, wonderfully resourceful ladies.

      To Theresa Leurck: You’re not only a champion of EWTN but my champion for all you do for the holy souls in purgatory.

      To Frank Scharl: You are my treasured friend, with such a generous heart, who shows up like a guardian angel to help me. The holy souls and I thank you.
