Not sure what to say?

I was a parishioner at St. Paul of the Cross parish in Park Ridge, IL where Fr. Gamber was assigned as a priest. A very holy man! He was extremely instrumental in the Eucharistic adoration chapel at our parish being established. He made an incredible impact in the years he was a priest at the parish. Thanks be to God for his life and ministry!

We loved Fr.Matt dearly and can’t believe he is gone. He had a profound effect on our marriage, our 9 kids, and friends. We shared many discussions around our large kitchen table, Not to mention rosaries and meals over the last 20 years. Cincinnati will not be the same without him. And our lives will feel the void forever. Fr Matt was always our biggest supporter and best idea guy for the Catholic Shop. His frequent unannounced “stop ins” to the Shop and our home will be sorely missed. There...

Fr. Gamber was a special friend and confidant. We spoke many times in his last weeks. I will never forget when he visited for dinner how scared he was to depart from his car (knowing i owned a dog ;). Once he discovered my dog was 5-Ibs 1oz(dripping wet) we both chuckled and enjoyed a wonderful italian meal. He always made one feel at home. May the repose of his soul rest in peace. We miss you already, Fr., God bless to all in mourning. Your friend in Cinci

Father Gamber was an amazing man and priest who was a rock for our family through my father's illness and death. He flew to Florida to say preside over the wake, funeral mass and burial for my dad on three separate days. He was an amazing man who we always looked forward to seeing on his visits. May he rest in peace.

The Dowd family is sending love and prayers. Matt was an amazing man and a wonderful priest. He was very good to our family in times of celebration and sorrow. He will be greatly missed!!!!

Dear Ruth and Family,
We send our deepest love and condolences to the Gamber family and pray that you find comfort in knowing that Father Matt left the world a better place.
The Blairs have many wonderful memories of time spent with the Gambers. Good friends last forever! God Bless you.

To the Gamber family, especially Bob. I am so sorry to hear about Matthew. The several times I met him, or attended a Mass, he was always so kind. May he rest in peace.

Dear Gamber family,

My father and I extend our deepest sympathies for your loss.
