Matt was a fraternity brother of mine at W&L. He was someone who made me feel welcome when I knew nobody. I always considered him a good friend, and someone I could trust. The world is lessened without him.

I had only known Matthew for a year. He was in our house once and did a workshop at our church, Faith Lutheran, Kent, Ohio. Even then, my heart goes out to you and all you who mourn are in my prayers. Pastor Kent G. Wartick, Kent, Ohio

I have been a client of Matt's for over 5 years. I will miss him. The last year was a difficult one for me and Matt was very kind and helpful to me during this time. You all have my sincerest sympathies and condolences. I will keep you in my prayers.

We are so sad and thinking of everyone in Ohio. Our grandmas, Ethel and Evelyn, were sisters, and we saw Matthew infrequently, but of course he made an impression each time! :) Our hearts are heavy for you in Downers Grove, Illinois. Jill and Tom Browning.
