Matt,

I miss you so much. I can`t even describe to you how much I miss you. You were full of energy and laughter. I cherish every memory I have of you. If you could only take your memories and make them into a movie so you could replay them over and over again. I`m going to miss everything about you. Especially you yelling at me and Steve to stop fighting. Remember when I said nothings the same with out you, well I ment it. Nothing will ever be the same again. Everything I do I will always keep you in mind. You will NEVER be forgotten. I love you Matt, you have been there for me when I needed you the most. You will always be the big brother I never had. I miss you. @~~>~~~~

Love Always,

Tasha

Dearest Matthew-

There are no words that I can speak to tell you how truly missed and loved you are. I knew from the moment I layed eyes on you that I would love you. Im beyond greatful that you shared your life, laughter and love with me. You were so full of life...the way you made people laugh..you and your imitations are unforgetable. You were always full of energy and laughs. Your passion and love you felt towards your family and friends...and MUFFIN will be forever cherished. I know that your in Heaven watching over me, and probably chilln' with good ol'Johnny or Kurt. But always remember that I love you and I will never stop loving you, and that you are missed deeply. You were my true love, and I wanna thank you for sharing that love that we had together, and that we'll always have. I know someday we will be back together again,until then..I love you and miss you so much. Like Lindsey said this isn't a Goodbye, it's a c-ya later!



P.s. I promise you that I will look after you parents and family.. Make sure that there doing well...and that your dad isn't "jesus Christing" Muffin..too bad. =)

I know that there are no words that can sooth the aching in your hearts right now, but know that love is stronger than sorrow. While the pain may lessen with time, your love will remain a constant vigil on your soul. I hear myself asking God for an answer to a question that I should never have: Why? Please accept my deepest simpathy.

I was very blessed to have known Matt, he was a wonderful human being. It brings comfort to me to know that he is now an angel looking down upon us. There is only peace and happiness where he rests now. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who loved and cared for him.

Matt,

I know you are at peace now. You will always be with me. I love you and always keep smiling that beautiful smile.

Love always,

Holli

I have known Matt for 13yrs & every moment was a gift. It has been a privelege & an honor to have known such an angel here on Earth & I am grateful that now I have this angel watching over me from Heaven. Anyone who knew him knows he is deeply missed & much loved. Matt's legacy will live on forever in my heart & he will be with me wherever my life takes me. Many prayers go out to his dear family, especially his loving parents & grandmother. Through the years, Matt & his family have become my own. Dearest Matt, may your head rest on clouds, your memory rest in our hearts, & your sweet soul rest in peace. Until we meet again... I love you.

Love Always,

Lindsay
