Julie,
There are no words that will take away your pain. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Matt and Julie at Chicago Blues Festival 2006

Matt's family thanks each of you for your kind words, thoughts, prayers, and memories. Matt was an incredible young man. He had a hard shell, but everyone who truly knew him was aware of the fact that he was a sensitive soul. He was the center of my world and I am lost without him. Rest in peace, my precious baby. I long for the day when we will meet again.
