there have been many happy moments this summer, but some sad ones as well. a few months ago, matt's grandpa vander woude was diagnosed with cancer, and just six weeks later he died. he had been quite a healthy man in his upper 80's who was still reupholstering furniture and making jewelry in his final year of life (all my cool dangly earrings come handmade from him :) ). before retiring, he spent his life as a reformed church pastor. matt travelled with the rest of his family to minnesota for the funeral, and came home with a stack of his old, hand-written or typed sermons dating back to the early 40's. he will be missed.
