I had the privilege of working for Fred in the school system. He was friendly and treated everyone with respect. He was truly one of the good guys. May he RIP.

A true gentleman and educator. Loss for Wilmington

Oustanding educator great all around person, remember his classes like yesterday at denver elementary , likely big reason I got involved in education as a instructor art and doing metalworking , he changed a lot of lives .Very sorry for the family both him and carrolyn made a difference will be missed greatly.

He was my son's 6th grade teacher. My Randy always enjoyed his class.

Mr. Matthews was a kind, giving gentleman. I will always remember him with warmth and gratitude. My heart goes out to my friend, his daughter Melissa as well as her sister and brother.
