It is difficult to loose someone so young, but I feel a sense of relief for Matt - he is now at peace. My fondest memories are from when we were kids and lived with Aunt Penny, Uncle Dave, Holly and Matt. Matt and my brothers played Star Wars and Atari while Holly and I played with Barbies and giggled about boys! He had a great sense of humor and he will be greatly missed. Love - your cousin, Rhonda Barnett

Matt will always be remembered as a great childhood friend of mine and an inspiration for me to enjoy every day that God gives me. He demonstrated that through the best and worst the world throws at you...you should never lose your sense of humor nor your zest for life.

To the Knouff family, I am sorry for your loss. Matthew was always a trooper. I was so glad he came to visit me back in 1993. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Bill Klever.
