Our condolences go out to Matthew's family. He was a kind and gentle man and a very dear friend. I have been trying to get ahold of Matthew for months because it was unlike him not to stay in touch. I am greatly saddened to hear of his passing and rejoice only in knowing that he is now at peace with the Lord. We truly will miss you Matthew.

Uncle Matthew was one of the most selfless and generous person I have ever met. He was always so supportive. He did so much for his family, friends and military community. He was a great guy with a big heart. He will sorely be missed.
