Matthew James Jansen

Kathy,
I am not sure if you remember me, I met Matt at Fox Valley Tech, we sat next to each other for our Sheet Metal Apprenticeship. I remember meeting you when I came to your house and working on the A/C, Matt said he had the power off and but I found out it was on when I grabbed the wire. He and I shared a bunch of US Army stories, he was a Grunt and I was a tank mechanic. After we completed our schooling I saw Matt a couple times, I think about him every time I see a Winter's truck or...

Kathy and Kids, I was sadden to hear of Matt's passing. May the Lord comfort you all and keep you close to Himself during this time.

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God, that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38, 39

Kathy, Jacob & Courtney,
May you find comfort in knowing Matt is pain-free and with the Lord. You will see him again!
With deepest sympathy,
Tammy (Tickler) Haefs & family

Kathy, Russ and I are so sorry to hear about Matt and for the pain you and your family are going through. God bless.

Russ and Kathy Stang

Kathy, May God give hold you Jacob and Courtney in the palm of his hand during this difficult time. May he send the suns rays to shine upon your face again soon with wonderful memories of Matt to hold dear until you meet again. Our deepest sympathy to you all.

Kathy and kids- I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your husband and dad. If you ever want to talk Kathy you know where I'm at. I lost my mom from cancer 20 years ago. It's hard to deal with. Hang in there and I'll see you at work when you get back. Thoughts and prayers for you and your kids!

Matt was loved by so many... Always so kind and caring. His family has ALWAYS been his pride and joy!! He will continue to be with your family watching over you matter what... Always in your memories and Forever in your hearts!! My prayers now are for your family as you try to overcome your grief and loneliness you will experience without Matt here on earth. Be sure to lean on your friends and family and on one another to help you feel strong when you find it hard to be strong on your own....

I have nothing but great memories of my cousin, and I have always looked forward to our reunions and getting to spend time with Matt, Kathy, Courtney, and Jacob. He's gone too soon and will be sorely missed...Love,Theresa, Dan, Ethan, and Mara Caltagirone
