Words can never express how sad we are for you guys. Matt was always the young man that every parent wished that their son would be like. The fond memories of his scouting days, the basketball days, and just being Katie's wonderful big brother will always remind us of just what a wonderful person he was. You know that our thoughts, prayers and hugs will always surround you.
