We wish to express our deepest sympathy. We shared many wonderful memories as teenagers. We will always remember her kindness, the joy of her laughter and the warmth of her smile. We thank God for her friendship. What the heart gives away is never gone. It is kept in the hearts of others.

With Love and Prayers,

Rev. Daniel J. Brandt

My most sincere condolences to the Matz' family for your loss. I'll never forget the time I forgot to pick her up for work (leaving her standing on the corner). I was so embarassed, and she was so mad. We laughed about it for years later, thanks to her good nature and great sense of humor. She will be missed.
