Matthew James Bernacki

Father Jim, Sandy, Rachelle,
I am so sorry to hear about Matt. As soon as I read Rachell's message, the first picture that popped in my head was when I had Wyatt at MOVC for Matt's class and Matt kept giving Wyatt sips of Mountain Dew then the whole class watched Wyatt work off the sugar. I am sure many have expressed memories of Matt, and in them he will live on. May God's love and comfort continue to sustain you.

Dear Jim and Sandy,

Father Sam just told me about Matt and I am so shocked! Of course, I remember him as a little boy! Sandy, my heart aches for you - I wish I could hug you! Please know I am thinking of you - love

To the Bernacki Family:

Matt will always hold a special place in my heart as one of the dearest individuals I was blessed to teach and enjoy. Each and every day was a new experience as Matt touched my life. I admired his kindness and savored his sense of humor. I am deeply saddened by his untimely passing but find comfort in the wonderful joy he gave so freely to others. He will be missed and cherished.

Each morning since Matthews passing, the first face I see when I awake is Matt's. All the pictures we have of him is right in front of me every moment of every day. John and I cannot begin to express our true sympathy for all of you. We have loved and alway will love him in a very special way. Our love and prayers always...Pat and John

I had Matt as a student at PPHS, and I am devastated that this has happened. Matt was a wonderful young man. He had such a beautiful soul; he was compassionate, kind, sincere, and pleasant to be around. Someone once said that a man's worth is measured by the number of people who miss him when he dies. Thus, Matt's worth is immeasurable because everyone he ever knew grieves for him.

TO THE BERNACKI FAMILY-
