Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire family. I myself have not seen Mattie in over 35 years and I only met him a time or two. I went to school with Tom and know Jean and Steve also. Ron (Vuca) knew all of you better than I.

I know he was a good man which shows in the family he and Ruth raised. What wonderful memories you all will have to pass on and share with your children and grandchildren.

May peace be with all of you at this time knowing that he is not suffering and has gone on to a better place.
