Not sure what to say?

Gary and Nancy. Our deepest sympathies to you and the family. Words can not describe the pain you must be feeling. God bless you all. Megan and Mike.

When words fail, Gods love carries us through our deepest sorrows into the dawn of hope. May the God who,"binds up the broken-hearted and comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this challenging time. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy.

Prayers always as we remember our loved ones happy memories we we will always cherish and never will be forgotten

We are praying for you Dan, Gary & Nancy . May his angel wings breeze upon you everyday. Matthew is in Eternal peace, safe and watching over you.

Dan, Santina and I tried several times to see you Weds night and the lines were not stop. What a wonderful testimony to a beautiful young man and his family. Like I said the other night there are no words to make it better. But I hope you can reflect on those who came to see you with respect for your son and family. I hope you find peace and some faith knowing your son touch an awful lot of peoples.

Im one of your neighbors on Day Ave, Corinne used to always be working at Umass UHS when I would go in to see a doctor, I remember Nick (and I think Matt too?!) from being his counselor at Pine Knoll, and currently I work with Hery's class twice a week doing "gym class" at Square One. You all are such an amazing, kind, friendly family and I was so sad to hear about Matt. He was a fun, respectful, kind, kid with an infectious smile and wonderful heart. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Dear Dan and Cori, I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Matthew's passing. I still remember him as I knew him as a five year old at JLH! He was always singing and playful back then and I smiled when I read that he still had those gifts. How my heart hurts for you. Please be kind to yourselves through your grief and know you are surrounded by people who care for you.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Dan,Corrie and family.And to Gary and Nancy who added greatly to the unconditional love and support he always received. I along with everyone who knew and loves him will always cherish his memory.

It was amazing to see how much love surrounds Matthew and his family in this time of sorrow. I hope it helps to know how many lives he touched in his short time here. He must have been a truly special person to have been so loved by so many. Take solace in the fact that he made such a huge impact on the world. The true tragedy is we will never know what else he could have accomplished, but know his spirit is all around you and he is lighting up heaven with that gorgeous smile of his.
