Joe - As a fellow graduate of St. John’s High School (Washington DC) and friend I know how wonderful a person you were ! We graduated high school together in June, 1970. We both became cops in adjoining jurisdictions. I was at your Montgomery County, MD police academy graduation. I would like your family to understand that you are still revered and missed by your brother cops ! You were lost to your family, department and community. Even after these years you, Joe, are missed and fondly remembered as a person who placed himself in harms way for the thousands he served ! God Bless you and your family, Captain Mattingly ! You have completed your community service watch but you are NEVER FORGOTTEN !!

I still remember meeting you when I was an officer in South Bethany, Delaware. That was a very short time before this event. Now, I'm working for YOUR agency as are your children. Many positive things have been -- and are still being done to this day -- in your honor.

Always remembered, never forgotten.

The loss of a member of our family is always tough.

Based on the birth year of the Captain, I think he may have been a neighbor off Valley Rd. in Bethesda, MD.

The Joe Mattingly, Jr. I knew lived on the hill above Valley Road. We lived at 6305 Valley Rd.

I did not know he was a Montgomery County Police Captain as i moved south in 1980.

Our family is heavily into Law Enforcement. We ache for his family. The loss is never easy.

I read that he went to St. John's Military High School. I attended Cathedral Latin School, graduating in 1967. I believe my brother was in his age group.

Captain, you are in my prayers. A rosary for your soul will be offered by our family.

I was sure that you had come home and that you were sleeping beside me. They knocked on the door at 7:23. I will always believe you were there, with me. I love you Joe.

I met Joe long ago in the 70's when he first joined the Police Department. I would watch him drive his police car up the driveway at his mom's house. He was one of the reasons I wanted to become a police officer.
RIP Capitan.

Hello Mr. Mattingly,
I'm not sure If you remember me, but I was a friend of your son in Middle school and high school. I was thinking about you today, and remember your warmth and genuinely nice interactions with me as a young middle schooler. I still remember your laugh and the excitement in your voice. God Bless
