My Family, My Strength

This page is dedicated to the pillars of my life — my wife, Adela Miantona Quoi; our beloved children — Burline, Sametta, Salehsius, Samford, D. Marvin, Saadiah, Princess, and Dorothy; my father, Samuel W. Quoi; and my extended family.

Behind every degree, every sleepless night, and every prayerful step forward is their quiet sacrifice and unwavering belief in me.

Their love sustained me.

Their support empowered me.

And this doctorate? It belongs to them as much as it does to me.

A man and woman sitting outdoors on white plastic chairs. The man is smiling and wearing a maroon shirt, with a gold chain around his neck. The woman is also smiling, holding a smartphone, and wearing a yellow top with black sleeves. They are sitting close together, with the man’s arm around the woman, and greenery in the background.
