Donna, So sorry to hear of Matty's passing. Whenever I hear of one of "our generation" passing the memories come flooding back of Castleton in the 50's and 60's. It was the best!!! I always enjoyed seeing you and Matty on Holland Lane when I was visiting Joy. My condolences to you. Lynne

"Bomber":Words cannot express the sorrow I am feeling. Matty and the rest of the crew were great friends as we grew older. All those times we were supposed to be babysitting and all it turned out to be was drinking beer and playing eucher. Once and awhile we checked-up on the kids (it usually was the Justus boys). Now Matty, Wertz, Duke and Robby Snow are up there playing cards and having one hell of a time. I know how hard it is now but believe me when I say it gets easier but never easy. Keep your family and friends close.
Love, Jimmy
