Not sure what to say?

Today marks your 19th year in heaven. Time has passed but not the emptiness of our loss. We have so much to remember about you and no one could ever forget your incredible smile. What I would give to spend one more day with you. Love, hugs, and kisses always, Mom

Matt, was driving through the old neighborhood last week and thought about you. We used to have so much fun as kids playing in that old neighborhood. I remember your mom taking us to bumper boats and going to uncle Al´s, and x files at your house, and playing with all the kids in the neighborhood summers felt like they would never end.

There´s are days that are especially difficult to remember, like today. Seventeen years ago we had to make the heart wrenching decision to take you off life support. You are missed as much today as you were then. I can´t tell you how broken are hearts are over the loss of you. My beautiful baby boy, God knows how much I love you. It helps to know you are not alone in your heavenly home.

Happy Birthday Matt. Can´t believe you would be 35 today. Your sister and I miss you tremendously. We talk about you all the time. If I could have one wish, it would be to share another day with you. Love you always and forever, Mom OXOX

My dearest baby boy, you are on my mind more today than any other. It still hurts to know that today, 16 years ago I would have to say goodbye. It´s still as fresh in my mind as if it were yesterday. The same thoughts go through my mind, new tears flow down my cheeks. Saying goodbye to you that day was the hardest thing I´ve ever done. I still feel you in my heart and hear you in my minds ear. How I cling to the memories of you my baby boy. Good bless you my child, until we meet again. Love,...

I knew Matt for only a couple of years through some of his classmates and common friends. Matt was always wanting to really have fun and could never stay in one place. He needed to be active and he really stole the show at times. I never have spoken openly about the day he passed, but I think of it all the time. Our group of friends, at that time, hung out daily. I had made the decision to go away to a private school in another state before the accident. I know that I would have been in that...

Today marks the fourteenth year that you went to heaven. Life has gone on for us all but the emptiness is still there for me. Missing you is an understatement, I miss you more than you can imagine. You remain in my thoughts daily and in my heart forever. I love you my baby boy forever.

Matt, I just reread all the messages that were left on here for you. I miss you as much today as I did back then my baby boy. So much has happened over the years but I know you are watching all of us. John just had a baby boy and named him Elijah Matthew to honor you. Jeremy did the same with his son Lucas. I love you baby boy, miss you always, Mom
