Dedication

A Dedication is a more focused form of Acknowledgments, rarely exceeding two sentences and in a type size slightly larger than the body text. If your body text is 12pt, you may want to consider a 14pt or 16pt dedication.

Dedications can be short and concise:

to Barbara

Or have limited description:

To Barbara, who has helped me along the whole way here. I couldn’t have done it without her.
