Hi Matt! I just read your blog about your grandfather. It is an excellent tribute to him and sums up a lot of what I knew and a whole lot I didn’t know. You’re good! I heard the news when your dad text messaged me today. I called him on the cell and we talked briefly. Thanks for posting your remarks. I remember when I lost my first grandparent when I was in 7th grade. It was not easy and even today I still miss him. I will keep you and your family in my prayers!
You are such a gifted writer and an all-around good guy. I see that you have inherited your father’s sense of humor. He always did crack me up.
I don’t know how much you remember of South Africa (or me for that matter) but I recently received some photos from an AISJ alum that I thought I would share. They are at:

Matt,

If you would like to join the yahoo AISJ alumni group, you might just run into an old chum or two.
