Heartwarming / Pink and Say

• The book is dedicated to Pink.
• At the end of the book, the author says "I know this story to be true because Sheldon Russell Curtis told his daughter Rosa. Rosa Curtis Stowell told it to her daughter, Estella. Estella Stowell Barber, in turn, told it to her son, William. He then told me, his daughter, Patricia."
• On the last page of the book, there is a message:

  This book serves as a written memory for Pinkus Aylee since there are no living descendants to do this for him. When you read this, before you put this book down, say his name out loud and vow to remember him always.
