Hello.
My name is Roy Goodman and I am a HT student here in Arizona and aim to continue my studies at KSU.

I heard so many good things about Dr. Mattson and was looking forward to taking classes from him.

So I was greatly saddened to hear of his passing.

I hope you all are able to take comfort from his pioneering work and effort to help so many of those in need through a caring application of HT.

I am sure he will be greatly missed.

My condolences...
