Matthew Ahern

Mr. and Mrs. Ahern, I have been thinking of Matt quite a bit the past few weeks. I can't believe it has only been 3 months since he passed. I thought of him when I visited India recently - not for yoga or meditation, actually a work trip - and I really have noticed on and off that in just thinking about him, I can easily feel his laugh and smile. I hope you have had such moments of remembrance of him and that even just the short time I knew him in working together through the healing...

I'll try to add some photos from our Memorial Service for Matt this past Monday (1-12-15).

Our deepest condolences to Matt's family and the significant people in his life. We met Matt on Sunday, January 4, 2015, at a yoga breathing workshop he was giving in Marfa, Texas. Most of our meditation group (MeditateFortDavis) were there, and in the 30 minutes of interacting with Matt in that workshop was all it took for us to all feel very connected to him. He had his problem start during the workshop and was rushed to the hospital in Alpine via ambulance. We kept abreast to his progress,...

My heartfelt condolences to the Ahern family and all Matt's friends. Matt was such a unique and inspiring person. I am grateful that our paths crossed a few times and I'll remember him always. Peace.

Jim and Carol,

I was profoundly saddened to learn of Matt's death, so unexpected and so tragic. His life seems to have been one of searching and helping. No doubt he will be remembered for the love and peace he helped others find within. A kind spirit, Matt must have embodied the very best of you both.

Jim and Carol, I am overwhelmed with just the thought of the loss you must be feeling now. I haven't seen Matt since he was a small child, but from the other writings here it seems that two of the best people I know raised a son who mirrored their own quality. Angelia and I will pray for Matt and for you both during this incredibly difficult time.

I am so sorry for your loss. Matt was truly an amazing person and I'm lucky to have known him. He will be missed greatly and your family is in my prayers.

Dear Ahern family, you are in my prayers for comfort and solace. I got to experience Matt when he came to College Station on a regular basis to teach breathwork. He was a very unique teacher and soft, kind soul. I too am continuing his breathwork in the yoga classes I teach and with the patients I encounter that need an extra dimension of health. Know that your son touched many people with his gift of healing.

i have been so impressed-and greatly saddened, too- by the outpouring of love that has been sent to Matt and his family, at his sudden loss. what a beautiful legacy he leaves behind. although we are heartbroken he left us so soon...
