Matthew A. Ettl

We are thinking and praying for your family and remember the trips to the farm. Remember the lawn mower incident with David and his pinky finger? My friend Gordy VanPutten loved his yearly hunting trip at Matt's farm. Matt and Jackie always made him feel welcome.

Aunt Jackie & Family:
Sorry to hear about Uncle Matt - I will always have fond memories of visits to Lakota. I think I have told the story of my Uncle from out west who was the best cowboy yodeler a thousand times. I also feel blessed that I was lucky enought to visit with him last year.

Love, Marty & Jane Williamson

My condolances to the family. Matt impressed me as a man with deep convictions who lived life and loved greatly. I am sure he will be missed.
