[GSBN] Interview with Matts and Judy

[strawnet at aol.com]

 Thanks for this Martin. It's great.

I just spoke with Matts. He is doing relatively well, "most of the time" as he said. He also told me that Judy had written out a detailed list of instructions for him - of things she thought he should do to ease the transition for him after she passed. Is that typical of Judy or what... And he said he's doing pretty well trying to follow the list, saying that as usual, she was pretty much on the mark. 

Matts said they're looking at late March for a celebration of Judy's life here in Tucson and he hopes to travel east so there can be another for the Knox clan and east coast friends probably in April or May.  He said he was heartened knowing that so many people are holding him and the family and Judy in their hearts and thoughts. He said he has a solid support network here. And after he said "we" a time or two, he paused and said that it's hard to not to do that, and I said that I had a hard time not writing or saying  'Judy and Matts' or 'Matts and Judy' - it's a unit. And we agreed that they will remain a unit out into the future. 

How fortunate we have been to have them in our lives and our work.

Dear all,

There is a wonderful interview with Matts and Judy on YouTube that you might be interested to view:

The interview took place at the 2007 Colorado Straw Bale Conference.  It’s great to hear both Matts and Judy talk about their beginnings in the early days of the strawbale revival, and to again hear Judy’s voice, intelligence, and spirit.

Martin

Judy found the heart and soul in the straw revival, and, like the greatest of souls, connected each person she met to that heart, and rooted us there.  She can only be missed in the ordinary sense, because her extraordinary vision lives on in so many of us. 

With gratitude prayers, love, and best wishes to Matts and her family,
John
