James Matthew "Matt" Vanderhider

Hallie, I hadn´t heard about the passing of your son Matt. Words cannot express my sympathy and empathy I feel for you and your family. May God bless you and welcome Matt with open arms. Harry

Family -

I love you guys very much and miss you dearly. Hope you are taking care and remembering what a blessing Matthew was to all of us and how thankful I am that he was in my life!

i love you matthew!

Hallie and Michael: Madeline and I will be praying for you this week. I wish there was something we could do to comfort you. We care deeply about both of you. Hallie: Not only was the world blessed by having Matt, but Matt was blessed to have such a wonderful mom. For a couple of years I saw first hand how you put your kids above ALL else. I remember Matt reciting the entire Green Eggs and Ham book verbatim because he said you read to him at night. I remember you frantically running into...

hi,hallie this is madeline.just saw the stone.loved it.i think that is a awesome picture of matt.we will stop by in a couple of days.

Hallie: Madeline and I were out at the site today. The stone is beautiful; I love the picture and verse. Madeline liked the balloons there, and I told her I bet they were from you. She pushed the balloon holder down as far as it would go into the ground so they wouldn't fly away. You and Michael are in our prayers at night. Stop by and see us some time.

Hi Matthew....
I wish you knew how badly it hurts to live without you. Yet you came to me in one of the most amazing & reassuring dreams I have had since you passed... You made sure that I knew you have never left me and told me repeatedly that you are here with the people you love in everything thing that they do. You & Danny were together and smiling and the both of you seemed more happy than I think I had ever seen you during your time here. The both of you explained how you never left...

It's been 9months and 3 days since Matt left us, and it still feels like yesterday. He is missed so much by so many. Hallie and Michael i pray for you every day and love you both very much.

Family!
Just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and hope you are all doing good! You are all in my prayers.
Matthew, I miss you so much, and visiting with your mom and brother the other night was so wonderful and touching! *Love you*

Matthew...


i miss you
