Matthew James Cole

Dear Son:

As Christmas approaches I still find it hard to believe you are gone. We held a Worldwide Candle Lighting ceremony this past Sunday at the children’s memorial for all children, young and old, that have died throughout the world. Logan was literally an ‘Angel’ holding onto the candle as he patiently sat there. The candle illuminated his beautiful little face. I know you were looking down on him.

I pray you are in peace and look forward to seeing you again in...

Well Matt it has been one year since your passing and it only seems like yesterday that you were here. You are allways in my thoughts and prayers. I visited your grave site back in Oct. and your grave marker is beautifull. Keep looking down on us, as I know you are and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. You are dearly missed.

Love always,
Uncle Rick

Dear Son:
Sophia and I went to the lake today. It is very hard going there knowing how much you enjoyed it. I found your swimmng trunks and football and remember the fun we had passing the ball around in the water with Bill and John last summer. Going to the lake will never be the same without you being there.The fun is gone.

I miss you so much Matt.

Love always,

Dad

The Cole Family,
I had the great fortune of knowing Matt throughout high school. He generously shared his wealth of technological knowledge which greatly assisted in me becoming a software engineer. Matt was a great friend and has had a significant and positive influence on my life. He will always be remembered.

Tenderly...
May God's love heal your sorrow.
Gently...
May the prayers of friends
ease your hurting.
Softly...
May God's peace replace your heartache
with warm and loving memories.

Dear Cheryl & family,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family at this most difficult time of your lives. God bless you all.
In Christ's Love,
Marilyn & Mike Pienta

Dear Son:

One month has went by since you left us and I cannot get by a day without crying as I am doing now. I am suppose to be at your grandma Hope and Art’s Christmas eve dinner but I canceled. Your mom is not happy with me but I am just hurting to bad to be around anyone tonight. We never missed a Christmas together since you were born and now we will never be together again. I don’t know what the future will be like without you in my life. I can’t imagine being at the lake without...

Matt,

It's December 24th; Christmas Eve and one month since the date of your passing. There hasn't been one day that I haven't thought about you and some of the fun times we had. The new job at Cisco is going great; I've started working on finishing my CCIE again - I know you'd want me to finish, and I'm going to do it for you. It won't happen right away, but it will happen, and when it does, it will be in part because you taught me to be confident and always strive to be the...
