Matt, it has been a pleasure running into you in all of the various situations. Whether it was at a Brown musical function, a gathering at the Strandbergs’ or seeing you two rows down, in the trombone section on the bandstand, it is always a pleasure to see and hear you. Congratulations on your retirement. Now you can spend more time losing money as a performer. I hope we continue to encounter each other.

Best wishes, and warm regards,

– Peter Bodner
