Recollection of this Knuth Family Reunion event:
I was 10 years old when this photo was taken. I remember everyone
being busy, social. Adults were jabbering and kids were playing.
It was a hot July or August day and all of the kids were swelting as
they ran around. The Matz family kids intelligence, my cousins,
were a revelation Bill Matz was my approximate age but the girls,
except Debbie Matz, were older and well schooled. I remember
telling one of the educated girls that I wished I had a cold shower -
she told me it was better to have a warm shower because it would open
your pores and your skin would cool you because moisture would evaporate
better
As another aside, and at another time than the reunion: the cousins in the Matz family taught me some humility. I remember frustrations when I talked Baseball (they did not know the terms) but then I remember embarrassment when the Matz cousins talked Tennis and I did not know the terms. It was embarrassing
