Matthew Dean Medeiros

A sudden loss that saddens us all. Matt is the type of kid that every coach loves to teach; the spirit that keeps a coach coming back year after year. Open-minded, vivacious, dynamic. A wonderful kid that we had the pleasure of knowing and watch grow. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

It was a pleasure watching Matthew grow. He and Jason were together many times and always had fun. We grieve with you during this very difficult time.

I'm so sorry about what happened to Matt. He was always nice and almost always had a smile on his face. I wish I could change what has happened. May God be with you and your family. Cole Heggem #73
