Eleven years ago today, Matt, was a difficult time for you. Your pain ended, bringing you peace which you richly deserved. Until we are together again, memories linger throughout my days & months. I even hear you occasionally in my voice when responding to someone. It's a bit eerie but enjoyable. I miss you, Matt, but know you're watching out for all of us. Love, -Dad.

Hi Matt. We know you were with us last weekend at Julie & Nick's wedding. And I know you are watching over babies Paige, Tiago and Jackson. I can picture each one of them in your arms. Love you, son.

I did not get to spend as much time with Matt as I would have hoped, but his influence is still seen on his brothers and sisters who continue to keep him alive today. We miss you Matt.

My brother Matt was and always will be a wonderful older brother. He was always there to protect, provide support and lend a helping hand. We are so thankful to Matt for all of the good times and memories we have to share throughout the years. We love him and miss him dearly.

Matthew was a dear childhood friend and companion. We shared many laughs and adventures together over the years. I cherish those childhood memories and will always remember Matt as one of those friends that change your life for the better. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
