MATTHEW P. BYRNE

One could only feel at liked, at peace and respected in Matt's company - always - no matter who you are. Matt is and was a human who made the world a little better. I adored him, and still do. David Singer

Four years. Time goes by so quickly and I miss Matt so so so very very very much. I think of Matt whenever I am at the Marshfield school parking lot where for MANY years we started for our weekend runs. I ran with Matt almost all of the time. We talked of life, kids, families and ourselves

May you only have blue skies and following winds.

With my deepest sympathy the loss of your loved one. May it comfort you to know that Matthew will return to the days of his youthful vigor as promised at Job 33:25.

Condolences to all. Such a loss. Be comforted knowing Matt is safe in God's memory.

Matt, you showed us a singular love of life. We miss the sailing, intramural sports, bridge and your generous camaraderie. Rest in peace old friend.

Dear Phil and all of Matt's wonderful family.

I'm part of a group of friends who lost touch with Matt in the last few years. But hearing of his passing has stunned us and brought back the wonderful memories we all shared in Boston, Marshfield and especially Cotuit as though it were yesterday. His gentle manner, warm smile and caring ways will always be a part of us and I'm sure will live on in all of you forever.

Warm regards

Ohh Matt, I miss you terribly already. Whenever any of us met Matt he always made you feel valued and respected. Always. He listened deeply and smiled. With each passing friend we recognize the limited time we have as we get older. But with Matt there is also an emptiness I feel and a pain. I miss you terribly already. God is with you

Matt was exceptional as a person and a friend. Though I left Massachusetts for California a long time ago, we remained in close touch because he genuinely cared about my sons and me. I cherished our friendship. I will always remember his great laugh, his gift for conversation and his immense heart. Matty, you made your mark on the world and will be missed. My sincere condolences to the Byrne Family and to Nancy.
