Not sure what to say?

I was deeply saddened to hear about the loss of Matt. I attended high school with him and also participated on the football team along side him. He will be remembered by me as an intelligent, quick-witted, comical individual. My prayers go out to you Matt and for anyone who is grieving.

Time was it that you couldn't leave the 'hood without seeing Matt's red head streaking down the street preparing for the Cibola football season. No one player worked harder to achieve success on the gridiron than Matt. He was respected by all who knew him and played along side of him. Those qualities are a reflection of sound parenting. My respect and love are with you Mike and Carrie.

I could'nt believe it when I heard Matt was gone...my prays go out to his family....I've had the honor of meeting his parents and grandpa...and I only wish them well....and I am so sorry for the loss their son, Matt. I played football along side matts for 4 yrs of football and in those 4 years I grew to know him well as a great outgoing athletic person....and as a good friend off the field....he was a good academic student that did nothing more than his best in school.....it really ...really...

My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone who knew Matt. I was blessed to have met Matt my freshmen year of high school and became good friends with him and till this day considered him to be one of my best friends through high school. Matt I will miss you and look forward to meeting with you again some day soon.

Al, We were very sorry to read of the loss of your Grandson. We'll keep you in our prayers.

Mike, you and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers.

Mike and Carrie,

My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. God be with you.

My family and I have been praying for the loss. I go to school at Yuma Lutheran and when I heard he passed away I was devastated. I am very glad my family was able to meet him. He was so kind-hearted. He was the best substitute I have every had. He was so awesome. When my class didn't understand something he made sure we did. He will be missed but never forgotten.
