HON. JEFFERSON VAN DREW
of new jersey
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, July 27, 2022
Mr. VAN DREW. Madam Speaker, I would like to honor the many accomplishments of Joseph ``Buddy'' Matise, a lifelong Hammonton, South Jersey resident. Buddy married his wife, Josephine, over 60 years ago and raised 2 children with her in South Jersey. In addition to being a family man, he is a World War II Navy veteran. Buddy fought in the Pacific Theater on the USS Norman Scott from 1943 to 1945 and fought for his country in many World War II battles. Buddy should be proud of his brave service to our great nation, and it is an honor to be able to recognize him for his sacrifices and courage. God Bless Buddy, and God Bless our United States of America.
