Matt was a great friend and a wonderful Christian Gentleman!
I will miss you but know I will again be with you in God's house some day! Your friend Ralph WB4CTW

There are no words which can describe my great relationship with Matt. I met him at the Fresh Air camp during my Eagle Scout project. Matt was always laughing and all the girls hung around him. I spent many days tinkering in his electrical shop where I learned many practical engineering principles including 2 meter repeaters, HF transmission, control systems and the like. We went to Norris lake to test our latest radio work and of course to ski. I worked with Marr at the traffic engineering...

A kind gentle man with a lust for life always smiling. He will be fondly remembered. Our Fulton High class mates of '72 will miss him greatly

Our prayers go out to family and friends.

Matt was super guy..I knew him while working at St. Marys. I'm truly very sorry for your loss. May God Bless you and let the Lord to comfort your greif you loved one.

Worked with Matt for many years..very sad for this day but I know he is in a better place with those in his family that have gone before. Love you and God Bless!

We will surely miss Matt...I knew him thru the hospital... he always had a smile on his face. May GOD bless and comfort all family & friends.

I work for IMA where Matt came to see the Dr. and he was just a wonderful inspiration. I will never forget him. I thought of him often. See you in Heaven, Matt. I know you are well and rejoicing in the Lord.

Matt was a wonderful, kind person... I had the privilege of working with him at SMMC. I am so sorry to hear of his passing, but so happy for him that he's finally home. Prayers for the family as you all deal with the loss.
