Matthew Vincent Pollock

My sincere condolences to all of Matt's family and friends. Matt was an exceptional person, I knew Matt mostly through photography.

Matt's talent, knowledge and passion helped me and countless others capture the milky way and night sky in all its glory.

I met Matt through a photography group, and we got together a number of times for night sky shooting as well as some light painting photography. He was always a lot of fun to be around with and I enjoyed getting together with him whenever we could. Rest well, my friend.

Was just looking at some photos Matt gave to me this am. RIP Matt.

We were so blessed to have met him many years ago and enjoyed trips together in search of new places to capture photos of nature´s beauty ; waterfalls, autumn´s colorful landscapes and the night time photos to capture photos of the milky way. His extensive knowledge he shared freely and we learned so much but mostly he taught us to enjoy life in every moment. Our friendship turned to family in our hearts. He will be missed but remain in our hearts always.
