Mochy

This is Mochy, our Golden Retriever. She's 13 1/2 - will be 14 in May, 2009. God willing. She's nearly as playful now as she was as a pup.

The family in 2006



This is all of us in Tahoe in 2006. Isabelle hadn't been born yet. Bradley, our youngest boy, is behind me, and standing next to Monica, Geoff's wife, who is holding Gabrielle. In front of them is Geoff. I'm holding Jacob, and Val is in the very front.

Val Matthews

Val with one of our grandchildren (I think this is Gabrielle).


This is Val (real name Valerie). We married in 1972. We grew up together in Bernardsville, NJ but didn't date until we ran into one another in 1969 in Boston. She's a good athlete (she was a very good swimmer in HS), and she's got the golf bug too. She was a stay home mom for our kids, and headed every organization that they were part of, from baby sitting co-ops through PTA. She has a great smile, especially when she's had a few cabernets...

My three grandchildren

These are my three grandchildren in 2008. They belong to my son, Geoffrey, and his wife, Monica. They live in Woodland Hills, CA, and are the cutest grandchildren ever! From left to right, they are Isabelle (about one year old), Gabrielle (4 1/2) and Jacob (3). Monica took this photo one afternoon and it just came out perfectly.
