Paul Matvey Memorial

The Paul Matvey Memorial Scholarship was created to honor Stow-Munroe Falls graduate Paul Matvey. Though employed as a manager in the service industry, Paul had a special passion for any project that entailed him getting his hands dirty. With no formal training, Paul’s solutions to problems were sometimes “unique” but usually very effective.Paul had a special pride being part of the Stow-Munroe Falls community and we can think of no better tribute than to honor him by supporting the education and training of those people who have the same passion for “making things work” as him.
