We met Bill at Camp Hope. He lead some challenging discussions! That really set us to thinking! Eventually he and Mary moved to Nazareth. Bill was elected to Borough Council and was highly respected . We always enjoyed their visits to our home and porch ...esp. after the Memorial Day Parade. We cherished their friendship. Perhaps he and Elmer are still having some weighty discussions ! Alice Yeakel

I had the pleasure of having Dr. Matz as a philosophy professor at NCACC. He was so kind and trustworthy. He was a true role model. I think of him and that course often. It was that course that propelled me to believe in myself and pursue further education. In part, because of him, I am a successful professional. Thank you for your service, Dr. Matz. Rest in peace.

Asst., made it possible for us to begin a new chapter in our lives by being there when and where needed. He was often seen talking to students and began many conversations with a question: Would you be willing...to drive to Philly to pick up a new student, to take a couple out to lunch, to help move...
