Condolences to the family. Small world, I actually saw a picture of Matt on my little cousin's facebook page and thought that was her boyfriend. She told me that was her very handsome best friend. Then I find out he is the nephew of one of my close friends from middle and high school. So sorry for your loss...Gone but will never be forgotten.

Matthew smile, humor, and heart will be missed dearly! Mr. and Mrs. Conroy you raised a handsome, smart, funny, loving and outgoing son. We will all miss him and I will keep the entire family in my prayers. God is our Heavenly Father and in John 5:24 Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes him who sent me, has eternal life; he does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

Conroy Family, I am so glad I got to be a part of Matthews elementary school years at AFE He was such an original individual that I often wondered what he was up to in Middle school, high school and college. I knew anything he would do would be with great passion. I am so sorry about his passing, know my heart and prayers are with you each.

A Reminiscence

YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.

May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.

Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;

To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.

May 30, 2012

Today your soul is reaching out for something that's unknown, You cannot grasp or fathom it for it's known to God alone. You cannot hold or harness it, or put it into form, for it's as uncontrollable as the wind before the storm. Our heart's grieve with you, our memories are so real, our prayer's are constant for you, we know that your heart is still. I wish that we could wipe away every trace of pain and suffering from your hearts, But God is GREAT and we are so small, and we cannot alter His will at all. Praying that God will help you through each day...
