Flags lowered in honor of Philip J Mattson
The Borough flags have been lowered to half staff in honor of Philip J Mattson. PJ was an amazing man who dedicated his life to our country and especially the Borough of Swedesboro.
He served our country by serving in Vietnam and was a member of the Woolwich Fire Company since 1964 and served as the Chief for 14 years. During that time, he was also the Fire Marshall, State certified Fire Inspector and the State certified Fire Official for the Borough.
He somehow found the time to become one of the most recognized model railroaders in the country and would open his home to visitors every November, and it took 10 people to help him run the operation. He rose to the level of President of the Mid Eastern Region of the NMRA and was designated as A Master Model Railroader.
When VFW Post 10886 was formed he joined and became the Quartermaster of the Post.
PJ Mattson was a true son of Swedesboro and he will be missed tremendously. The Borough of Swedesboro offers our sincere condolences to his wife Jeanette and the entire Mattson family.
