Prayers to Jean and other family members. Coach was a great mentor who provided impactful leadership and life advice well beyond the basketball court.

Jean, I'm so sorry for the loss of your husband Larry. I recall visiting with you several times while you were teaching at Scottsbluff High School and I at Longfellow. Special prayers for you and your family at this time.

Jean: So sorry to hear about Larry (Mr. Matthesen). He was my favorite teacher at Gering High School and later my Facebook friend. He had such a clever way of teaching, very witty and always had a nice smile. I am so sorry for your loss but very happy he found Jesus. Rest in Peace Mr. Matthesen!
