  The books dedication: 

Dedicated to

Benjamin ("Jay") Youngblood Lee 

As director of disaster services at the Palm Beach County Medical Society, Jay Lee contributed to the development of this book, but sadly passed away on February 4, 2010.  His professionalism, dedication, and sense of humor will be dearly missed by all who worked with him at the local, regional, state, and national level.
