 Notzon’s eldest son, [[attorney]] Marcel C. Notzon, III, recalled that his father "originally planned to enter the priesthood but switched to the law after meeting the young woman he would marry. Notzon, III, said that his father "always tried to teach us right from wrong to try to live and follow [[Jesus Christ|Christ]]’s will. ... He always told us, ‘God’s not going to judge us by how much money we have when we die, but how many people we’ve helped.’"<ref name=lmt/> Sometimes called "the singing judge", Notzon had a  talent for music. He also had many other areas of interest.
