This should be my last question on this topic. I want to center the
dedication but align=middle (or center) and alternative=middle added to
\definestartstop[dedication] seem to have no effect. I can't seem to find a
simple way to center an odd line of paragraph of text. Using a frame seems
like using a sledgehammer to pound a tack.

ConTeXt already load there files to let you use the palatino etc. fonts

Add this to my example:

\definestartstop[dedication][style={\switchtobodyfont[dedication]}]

You can now write in your document

\dedication{...}

and

\startdedeication
...
\stopdedication
