A Gifted Young Man

It must have been April or May of
1990. Julie and I were asked to
come to come and see Julie's doctor. There was a problem with the baby. We were told that if he lived, he would likely not have much of a life. He would never walk or even be able to think like other children.

In a way, they were right. Matt never did learn to walk. He went directly to running and thinks in ways that amaze us. Just shy of 18, he is entering college. He is a good soccer player, picks up musical instruments with little difficulty and loves to tinker with just about anything mechanical or electrical.

He probably feels more deeply than any of our children but expresses it less.

In a week, he enters Glendale Community College to begin his college career. Please join us as we celebrate with him. If you would like to send a graduation card, you can send it to:
