Born in Youngstown, Ohio, Matilda (Tillie) was the youngest of two children of Frederick and Kathie Winterkamp. A graduate of the local high school, Tillie went on to attend THE Ohio State University in Columbus earning a degree in Personnel Management. During her time at OSU, Tillie was a member of three honorary societies, Chimes (Treasurer), Mortar Board and Mirrors. She was President of her sorority, Alpha Delta Pi, while belonging to the Women’s Panhellenic Council and the Fraternity Managers Association. Tillie was part of the Student Senate and First Vice President and part of “The Big Three” that kept the wheels turning for the WSGA (The Women’s Self Government Association). Tillie was also Secretary for Strollers, a group that produced one-act plays on campus. (Regardless of her activities and successes on campus, it is safe to say that the highlight of her college career was Rolly.)
