Abstract:To my loving mother, Lila R. Neideigh, who fought and lost a long, hard battle with lung cancer. She was always my number one supporter and told me I could do anything I set my mind to. Her knowledge and strength still live within me, and give me the courage to face every new challenge that comes my way. I love you, until we meet again. iii
