We got to go to a the Renwick Gallery--always a big treat. She also got to spend some time in the Capitol Hill neighborhood and some other adventures. A real treat to spend some time with her, and the sunflowers were worthy of a thank-you card.
Catherine was on her way to a memorial service in Woods Hole Massachusetts for her uncle and my brother-in-law George Woodwell. I wasn't able to make it to Woods Hole, but I did get to see the service on-line and it was beautifully done, with a balance between his professional and family life. His professional life was as an environmental scientist and he was the founder of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, later named Woodwell Climate Research Center. He also was a wonderful family man. We are both honored to be related to him.
