My sincere condolence to the Fitzgerald family.
I went to school with Matt, he was a great leader and truely a great friend. We may never know why he was taken so soon, but I know he is in a safe place and in good hands. May god be with you all.

“Sorry” is not a large enough word to hold all of the sadness we feel for the loss of your son and brother. It is a comfort to know that he is with our Lord in the kingdom of heaven. However the ache that is left behind when a child is called home to soon is far too great to comprehend. We hold all of you, as well as Joyce and Gary in our prayers. Please feel free to lean on us if we can offer any help.

With our Deepest Sympathy,
Heather (Richardson) Diaz Family

Craig, Michelle and Charmaine,

While the loss of a loved one is never easy, it is most certainly the hardest when they are taken from us too soon.

We offer our sincere condolence and deepest sympathy on the loss of your son and brother, Matthew. May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and strangers, help you through this difficult time.

We ask for God's blessings on your wonderful family. May you find the courage and strength to move forward.

Dear Craig and Michelle,
The loss of any relative always comes as a shock, no matter how much it was expected. The loss of a child is much worse since it is not in the 'natural order of things'.
We offer you our heartfelt condolences and hope that this tragedy brings your family together in much tighter knot of love and support.
