Matthew J. Taggart

I know you´re in a better place, and that brings some comfort-but I still miss you every day. I miss your smile, the way it lit up a room without trying. I miss your words-how you always knew just what to say, whether it was wise, witty, or wonderfully sarcastic. I miss our talks about the ridiculousness of the world and all the stupid people in it-you always made me laugh. More than anything, I wish I could get one more hug from you. Just one. You´re always with me, but it´s not the same.

Happy 46th birthday, Matt.

My mind knows you are in a better place, where there's no pain. I understand that. I just wish I could explain that to my heart. Author unknown

When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure. Author unknown

Grief never ends, but it changes. It is a passage, not a place to stay. Grief is not a sign of weakness nor a lack of faith. It is the price of love. Author unknown

Happy Birthday, Matt. Always in our hearts and minds.

Grief cannot be shared. Everyone carries it alone; his own burden in his own way. Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Missing you everyday. Seeing your smile, hearing your voice, watching you fix your heat for the 1000 time and getting a hug from you. A few of the MANY things I miss. Please watch over your family
