Kristina & the Laney family,
Matt was a great guy and I always enjoyed spending time with him, whether it was hunting, fishing, softball, just hanging out, or even working Matt made it a good time. I still remember the first time I actually spent time with him, it was a Deadseason rock concert, it was a great time, and from there it was just hanging out shooting, working, teaching me to use a climbing stand, and cooking out at Tom's house. He was a good influence to me, I will miss him...

Dear Mr & Mrs. Laney & Kristina,
We are so very sorry for your loss. Donnie got to know Matt through their mutual interest of Archery & Hunting. They had run into each other several times over previous years and had wonderful conversations regarding hunting trips to Illinios. Once Matt became an employee of LL Cote's, he was very helpful with both Donnie & his son Tyler, especially with helping Tyler with shooting his bow. Matt was an incredibly kind & nice individual. He is going to...

Dave, Elaine and Dave II,

Just sitting here reflecting and doing some reminising of my own. Thank God no one can take our special memories away. I was just thinking about when you guys stayed here and Matt was Baseball and bsktball card crazy. He would go thru each card and tell us all the details. We would go, "Yup, Yup." He made sure to give me all my favs like Larry Bird and others. I had just run across them before this. I will treasure them always. Love you guys all so much. Becky

Dave and Debra and the Laney Family,
I am deeply saddened by the loss of Matt. He was a quiet, industrious gentleman. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Kristina and the Laney Family,
Our son, Zeke, knew Matt from working at Cote's last summer. He had gone fishing with Zeke and brought him home from work a few times. Zeke worked a day not too long ago and spent it with Matt. He seemed like a very caring and gentle person, very rare for this day and age in a young man. Zeke will sorely miss Matt. We extend our deepest sympathies to you on the loss of one so great.
