Keith R. Erlewine '52 entered Chapter Eternal on March 5, 2017. He and
his wife, Rosemary, were devoted members of the Saint Mark's Methodist
Church in Sacramento for 50 years, serving on church boards and singing
in the choir. They had unending devotion to their three children (Randy,
Kris, and Karen) and six grandchildren, who frequently visited them in
the summer. Their great passion and source of pride, working side by
side for hours, was gardening, maintaining an enormous vegetable garden
(which consistently provisioned the church sharing table to benefit Heifer
International), along with large flower gardens. Together they enjoyed
traveling, staying at B&Bs, ballroom dancing, tennis, playing bridge, and
were members of the same gourmet group for 30 years.
Stanley A. Matzke Jr. '53 entered Chapter Grand on November 2, 2017.
In 1965, Stan became the first director of the University of Nebraska
School of Technical Agriculture in Curtis. He was a professional and
personal mentor to countless people throughout his life. Stan had a lifelong
interest in good government and ran for political office, including secretary
of state and mayor of Lincoln. For 20 years he and his wife, Dorothy, lived
on 80 acres south of Lincoln near Panama. They planted over 7,000 trees
and shrubs. He won the UNL Alumni Achievement Award and joined the
Nebraska Hall of Agricultural Achievement in 1995. Stan is survived by
his loving wife of 63 years, Dorothy; children: Allen, Jeanne, and John;
and eight grandchildren.
