I work at Crestview and have known Matthew & Georgia for the past 3 years and have helped take care of him as his Aide. He always smiled at me and we always kissed each other on the cheek and said good morning. I will miss his smiling face and all the stories he told us. My prayers go out to his wife & kids. May God put his hand on your shoulders and give you strength. Kate Jelens
