Bo and Amy:

I am a friend of Millie. I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I was not aware that Matt had gone home to be with his Savior until yesterday.

Our church, here in Gadsden, Al. has prayed for you and your family. Please know we will continue to hold you and your family up in prayer. Our hearts go out to you.

In Christ,

Matt touched all of his nurses and nursing students in a special. He will never be forgotten and will always be loved and missed. My prayers go out to all his family and friends.

Thank you for letting me take care of you! It was a pleasure and an Honor to do so!!!

Hey Bo & Amy,

Hey its me Christy and I just wanna say I am sorry sorry to hear about ur loss that words alone can't express how much. If yall ever need anything please let me,Allen or Ann know. Our prayers are with you!!

We are thinking of you today. Matt has touched so many lives. What a wonderful young man that always had a smile for everyone, and demonstrated courtesy and kindness to those who met him. Please know that you are not alone today. Your friends are lifting you up in prayer.

I'm sorry that this terrible thing has happened to Matt. I only wish that could have a little bit more time to see him. But you should be happy for him because he isn't suffering anymore. Friday August 15 that day was the happyiest day of his life but still no parent should have to bury they're child noone. Again i'm so sorry. Love,V.J. Byrd
