First and foremost, my loving husband, Bill Hoyer, who has supported me in every way imaginable. My children, Will, Mitchell, and Carina have watched and pushed me in ways that have produced growth and vision. Without their spirit and love, I would be on another path with less self-discovery. My son Will's courage to acknowledge his sexual identity at an age and time that could have caused much suffering, was the inspiration for this entire work. I express gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Ronald Williamson, who was helpful and offered invaluable assistance, support, and guidance through this process. Deepest gratitude is also due to the members of my dissertation committee including Dr. Jaclynn Tracy, Dr. Barbara Scheffer, and Dr. James Berry. I acknowledge my brother, Edward Huizinga, who died during my dissertation process, leaving a wife and daughter, Dorota and Nicole, and I also acknowledge my younger, brother Robert Huizinga, who was killed earlier in life. My parents, Catherine and Martin Huizinga, and brother, Charles Huizinga, have supported this work by understanding, encouraging, and supporting my forward movement. The support of Grand Valley State University has been overwhelming, particularly the assistance of Dr.
