Sending thoughts and prayers to you all in the loss of a loved one. May all the memories comfort you in the days ahead.

Pam, it is with deep sorrow that I write this message. Our whole family grieves your loss at this time of your beloved son. Bridget told me of this sad news yesterday . You and your family will be in our thoughts.

I remember the little Matt in Kindergarten, when I became friends with Grandma Pat after I moved to Wyoming, IL. He was such a nice kid & so shy. Please accept my deepest sympathy in the passing of Matt. He will be greatly missed by many. Love to Pam & Jim & Pat and the extended family.

I am so sorry for your loss. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love to all of you. Lisa Ellis

Will never forget how Matt and David were playing in the fire pit. They thought is was fun to get embers on the sticks and bang them against a tree and see the red sparkles it made. After awhile, I looked out my kitchen window and saw my tree in flames. A neighbor was visiting and climbed the tree with a water hose and put the fire out. The tree is still standing. Matt I will never forget what a great kid you were and what a remarkable young man you had become. You will be missed. ...
